General comments?

It was a comfortable car, but not reliable at all. Every week the engine light came on. The interior is luxary and great, but the performance is very poor never buying a 626 again. The engine had a very poor output very slow car.

Oh brother! First of all, the 2.0 has only 125 hp and is not a fast car by any means. If you wanted fast you should have bought a more powerful car.

Secondly, you can't buy a car with 140,000 miles on it, and not expect to have some issues, or have to put some work into it.

I'm not saying it's a great car. But if you don't like it go buy another car with 140k on it and see how much luck you have with that one!
