"Too much money for lemon"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

1/driving - terrible, you have to use really strong holding of steering wheel to drive straight

2/gas - Honda says up to 8/100 km

i say up to 11/100 km

3/craftsmanship - o my goodness!!!

It looks like it was made 20 years ago in the country that had not too much skilled welders, I mean hidden spots, not visible from outside

4/push button for lowering your window and all panel of the door moves like it wants to jump out and run away

5/on the other hand - good sound /music/, fantastic drive in curves /despite of said above/

General comments?

A lemon is a car that keeps breaking down and leaving you stranded. So why did you call your car a lemon if it has not done that? As for the gas mileage, wait for the engine to break in a bit, or, maybe change your driving habits. If you drive rough, it'll be worse. Also, you did not specify what is wrong with the fit and finish of your car. What do you mean hidden?

I think that this is an overall poor review.

I agree with the above comment. I was looking for the general comments and realized that there weren't any.

Just a bunch of jibberish made even more confusing by the numbers.

Why don't you try again, and write a real review. (And leave out the 1/ 2/ 3/ stuff!)

Yes, this is a poor review however I am not sure why there are so many good reviews about these cars, they are cheap, noisy, poor acceleration, body integrity is awful not to mention I had 2 of them and the reliability could never match a Dodge. A Reliant is more reliable than 1 of these cars and it cost a lot less 15 years ago, but still runs better today.

Well judging by the current gas prices which are extremely high, this car gets great gas mileage and in my opinion is very reliable. I don't consider a car costing $17,000 cheap!! I own this car and haven't had a problem with it. It's a comfortable car, runs well, it's not noisy and has good acceleration. If you're someone who is looking for a more expensive and faster car maybe this car isn't for you, but don't criticize how the car runs like the comment above just because it doesn't suit what you're looking for. If you're not sure about getting this car, go to a dealership and take the car for a test drive.
