1996 Toyota Paseo review from North America
"A terrific little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got my car, it had a rear seal leak, but I was able to get that fixed with the warranty I purchased. My machanic said it can happen after 15,000 miles
General comments?
It has great handling, and it is a fun little car.
It gets great gas mileage. I can get about 30-35 miles per gallon.
The back seat crowded and my brothers hit their head, but they like to scrunch down and look at the stars.
I got this car when my Nissan took a dump. When I first saw it, it looked very cute and sporty. Then when I got to drive it home, I had all the controls within reach, it was very silent and I was close to the ground.
It takes corners really well and it isn't top heavy.
I think that it is a great car, and I would recommend it as a first car.
I love my little Paseo.
