General comments?
This is the perfect first car. I bought mine for $800 with 2 extra wide tread tires. I love it. It's a comfortable ride, and it's easy and fun to drive. Great gas mileage too, I get 29-30 mpg every time I fill up. I don't like that it's an auto, but whatever, I can't complain. I would recommend this car, the work I have put into it is easy, I have done it all myself with no experience, and it's cheap to maintain.
