2001 Toyota ECHO 2-door review from North America
"Close to perfect (for me)!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Aside from recall work on break line, nothing.
General comments?
Great car! Everything I look for in a car: reliability, economy, (sufficient) comfort, (sufficient) performance. I am not a "car head"; I look to my automobile for essential transportation needs -- not style and not high performance (beyond what I need to survive on the interstate). I also feel strongly that cars need to be as efficient as possible, given global political / economic considerations. At 35-42 mpg, the Echo gives me that.
