Never buy one.

Thank you.

These cars always have problems, bad bushings, always leak coolant, if you own one sell it. If you want to get it fixed, have mercy on your shop and your check book and sell it. If you really just love the car and really dont want to sell it, sell it.

Sorry just a rant, i hate them.

rick…  
That volin needs to be smaller… so that there is a smiley of the world’s smallest violin playing a sorrowful sorrowful tune.  
You want a cheap car to fix… by a pedal cart from Toys-R-Us… because the whole damned thing cost 100 bux.
