- I had to replace both rear tires at approximately 150k and the front tires at approximately 140K.
- Some electrical problems occurred at approximately 160K.
- The stitching on the covers of the seats has started to unravel, possibly due to sun damage.
The performance for this little car is superior to any car I have ever had. As the years and miles add up it continues to provide superior service in terms of gasoline consumption and repairs.
Typically consumption is 43-45 mpg for slower drives around town, and 50-55 mpg for longer trips on the freeway.
On the freeway this 15 year old car purrs along at 75-85 mph and has been known to pass newer model cars on an uphill climb.
It is not a sprinter in the sense that it will go from zero to 80 in a nano-second. In fact I would compare the Chevrolet Sprint to the turtle.
Well written and accurate review. I recently searched for and purchased my second Sprint, due to gas prices, and will probably never give mine up either.
