The car's battery completely died overnight a few months ago, and when I checked to see if I left a dome light on or a door partway open, it was just fine. No lights were on or doors were open, and the headlights were turned off.
I scuffed my rim on the curb a while ago, and about a month later the tire went flat. The car repairman told me it was because of the rim. Why it took so long, I have no idea.
Leather seats look terrible from wear.
This car is an underpowered boat. It is enormous car (from the inside) with only a 1.8L engine. I drive it like it's a Mustang with its manual trans, but still, I should figure more than 15 MPG.
I would like more than 150 HP and 150 torque, and better acceleration. More speed would be nice, too. I got dusted by a '94 Toyota Celica.
The speakers are terrible. If DO go against my advice and buy this car, do SOMETHING to the speakers.
I have received a lot of abuse from my friends for having such a girly car. Don't buy this car if you are in high school. Or play football. Or have friends that would make fun of you for it.
See how much your football buddies laugh when gas touches $4/gallon one day and they are scraping coins out of their furniture to fill up their "macho" machines.
On that topic, there must be something seriously wrong with your car if it is only getting 15 MPG. Either that or you have not fully developed your driving skills. Believe me, there are far worse things for one's ego than a late-model "family" car. If you really wanted a girly car, you could have bought a VW Cabrio!!!
Well, it's right about that time... yes.. gas has reached 4 bucks a gallon.. I'm buying a passat.
