Goes through batteries relatively quickly, and without warning (I do live in Arizona, so the hot weather partially accounts for this).
Center-seat drink holder broke last year; dealer wants $48 for a new one.
My mother sheared off the driver's side rear-view mirror three times because she can't see worth a damn.
This car is quick for a six-cylinder, and handles respectably. On the other hand, I notice a big difference after driving even a Firebird 305. Don't expect to blow by Mustangs (at least, not the 302s) in this one.
I think it's pretty sharp-looking, but that comes down to personal opinion.
I get about 23 miles per gallon while driving like a bat out of hell.
You are certainly right about the driving crazy part. I had a '93 that got about the same mileage. I now have an '01 Ranger with the the 3.0 and it gets about 12 to 13 when I drive fast. Yet my moms 2004 corolla gets at least 25 when I'm driving. Of course that does include going 125 last night.
I'm sure your mom is really going to appreciate that when she loses her job for being late because her engine seizes up on the freeway. I guess you don't understand what it means to have to work in order to buy things, or you would realize that you're cutting your family's throat by beating on her car.
