I liked it... until it died

Date of Review:  Aug 4, 2006
The Bottom Line: If a friend were going to buy one I'd recommend installing some aftermarket gauges in order to have some idea what's going on under the hood.
Review: I bought this car in the early autumn of 1998 for $1600. It had 108k on it. I had it for nearly three years. It had rust along the bottoms of the doors that got noticeably worse during the time I owned it.

I loved how comfortable this car...

I still like it

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: Nice transportation, feels/looks like a bigger car. 2.5L slow but adequate, 2.8L has more power, 3.8L makes you forget V8's of the past.
Review: This car has over 200K so those of you who don't take well enough care of your cars, well, you won't be worrying about the things I had to fix, because you'll be onto another car by then. But if you keep your car forever, buy something GM like these...

Reliable, Luxurious, Great Value

Date of Review:  Sep 5, 2000
The Bottom Line: Smooth luxury-car like ride without the hefty price tag, Reliable and almost zero maintenance/repair bill.
Review: Calling all first-time drivers, college students, recent college grads (which makes you poor), and maybe the occasional value-minded middle-aged used car shopper. Here's a great car if comfort, luxury features, reliability, and money are priority...

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2004
Review: This car is the perfect car for teenagers. it gets great gas mileage, it has a smoooooooth ride and it feels like your home watching tv on the couch. The only complaint i have is that the 2.5L tech four has the oil filter in the pan. this is a great...
