I purchased this car through a charity auction in anticipation of $4.00 gas. As I commuted 150 miles a day, my other car was sending me to the poor house. My mechanic completed a thorough safety and service and I went with his recommended repairs; new front brakes and rotors, new timing belt and water pump, new serpentine belt and front and rear wipers. Ice cold A/C! The tires are at 8MM (almost new) no rust and a one owner non smoker car. Then...I lost my job! EPA estimated 32 HWY, 24MPG CITY, 28 combined. Rides and drives as new!
