Positive Review

"Get one if you can!"

I bought this car with 150,000 miles on it. Perfect interior, dents down the driver side front and rear door but that's all. Mechanically perfect, never have done any work to it. Frequent oil changes to keep it running smooth and lots of love this car has been so good to me!It now has 260,000 and still runs like a champ! Awesome car! Negative: the seat starts to hurt my bottom after long car rides, and the leather seats can burn in the summer or freeze you in the winter

Critical Review

"This car is good in driving"

Even though 1999 car, this car is very good engine, not noise and good transmission, interior is very good. But it has some mechanical problems , Rust is damaged some places, tires are not that much good and one glass of the door is little hard to close it .

Watch for cars that haven't been cared for
Pros

Comfort not plastic/pleather, hills from bottom

Cons

CD player, pull up a hill in middle not so much

I purchased this car extremely excited to be able to go places finally with a reliable car. This car has a past history with Indiana back before or even if they strongly suggest home DIY (don't have a problem with those, I'm one myself) who don't put on car sites (Ford has a forum, Nissan has one, Mercury had one) where you list maintenance you did yourself. This car, like 7 years, only inspected. I had pulled a car fax. It was hidden in the drop down menu. 2nd or 3rd owner. I'm number 5. Before me, owner had it a year. Comfort was great. Heat was decent. Better by far than Mercury Sable. Radio was ok. CD player never worked from the start. WOW. I bought it to use that. NOPE. Found out 2 months in. "fog". Huh? Never worked.

Dependable
Pros

Very dependable cheap to operate and maintain

Cons

Not very stylish or sexy

I purchased this vehicle at 1 year old and 9xxx miles on it. excellent vehicle performed regular maintenance as recommended in owners Manuel. It does have low miles as it wasn't needed for daily driving for work. Needed minimal repairs 2 cv joints 1 set front brakes 1electric window switch 1 new stereo and speakers 1 power steering hose and 1 distributor assembly (bearings). All in order of repair. Batteries tires and maintenance as needed. 28/36mpg never wrecked everything else is original. that's no joke

Great car!
Pros

Always reliable/good security system.

Cons

None

My best friend bought this car new. She always parked it in the garage, and was so proud of it. As Executor of her estate, I kept the car following her passing in 2016. For a young person who is working and going to school, it would be an excellent car! It does need new windshield wipers.

Kbb has no idea what an older car is worth
Pros

not selling it

Cons

you cant buy it

You just cant go by KBB values for anything japanese, older or a collectable. They were almost a factor of 10 off on the estimate.

still running like a champ
Pros

economical, reliable, pretty

Cons

its a little noisy and the ride could be smoother

I like my little car. 20 years old but still in one piece and runs great. Regular oil changes, new tires, brakes. I did have to replace the water pump last week. And the shocks have been shot since I bought the ceBug deal. There's a few things on the inside that give away its age -- the power locks don't work from the driver's seat, sometimes the trunk won't close, and when the front passenger's door opens or closes all the locks. The paint is barely starting to go, but that's to be expected because I live on the beach. I bet I could drive this car to 250k or even 300k miles before I'm done.
