Detailed review: |
Bought this car with 11,000 miles in November 2004, paid only $10,500. Well equipped with keyless entry, power seats, V6, CD, AC, wish it had the alloy wheels. Very tight responsive car, the 200hp V6 gives it plenty of pickup for passing. The interior does feel somewhat cheap but is reasonably comfortable, no wind noise at highway speeds (actually at 100 mph still quiet). Only wish I had researched the 2.7 engine a little more, apparently it has some reliability problems that can be taken care of by using synthetic oil, but it jacks up the price of each oil change. |
