Review: In August of 1997 my parents bought me a 1990 Dodge Spirit. When I first looked at it I wasn't very impressed. The body style and lack of "Sportyness" wasn't to pleasing to a 19 year old college student. However after a while the car grew on...

Pros: Roomy and Dependable

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: I think that anyone looking for a good used car buy should take a look at a car like this. It is well worth the effort.

Pros: economical

Cons: 2.5L engine bad

Review: This was my wife's car before we got married. It was a nice looking car, but the 2.5L engine had too many problems. At 93,000 miles casually driving to church, the head gasket blew. The cost of repair was $500.00. We were told that they had to...

Pros: Comfortable ride,dash controls easy to reach.

The Bottom Line: If you are looking for reliability, do not buy this car. You can expect to repair transmission often.
