 I would love to give the reader a thumbs up for this car. But I can't. Had to replace: tranny at 100k mi. $1000,  serp belt (always squeaky!), spark plugs; wires, alternator $260, both headlights, all manner of front end work probably amounting to $1200.  Sheet metal is easy to dent and scratch.  Have to slam trunk to get it to latch.  Parking brake needs replaced.  Drivers-side strut&spring needs replaced.  Wheel bearing going bad quick-like.  Doors FREEZE open in winter (Michigan). This is so annoying. You cant even imagine until you experience having to use a bungee.  Driver door lock stuck in lock position. Had to take off door panel to fix.  Other than all this, it is a fabulous car.
