When you first buy this car it will seem like you got a pretty good deal. This was my first car and I bought it at a very low price. For the first 120,000 miles or so, it ran great. After that, the car started to fall apart fast! Here's a list of everything that I had to fix on this car in order:
Air Conditioning
Starter (twice)
Spark plugs
Timing Chain
Leaking fluids
Water pump
The clutch started to go out around 170,000 miles and had to be replaced (very expensive on this car b/c of where the master cylinder is located)
The only good thing about this car was that the gas mileage was incredible, even after everything started breaking down. This car would be good for a first-time car if you buy it with very little mileage on it, but don't expect to keep it for very long.
