Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 5.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Cheap and good looking

I bought this car because of its looks and deal
I never thought I could afford a car, for real

I'm a teenager with not much money or cash
But I could pick up a car that is much better than most kids trash

Looks are...

I’m a 23-year-old college student with a pretty decent job. I live in Hawaii and despite what "Mainlanders” may think we do a lot of driving down on the island. Especially on our congested H-1 and H-2 freeways. I bought the 1998 model and it has...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 2.0 Recommended: No 

Pros: Nice appearance

What an immense disappointment this car has been. Owned it since Nov 98, here's a partial list of problems:
1. Faulty trip odometer, to replace the entire odometer assembly had to be removed and reset with nasty sticker on dash saying so (elected...

Pros: Smooth Driving, No Problems

Exactly one year ago, my butt was sitting in my newest car, a 1998 Hyundai Elantra. It was perfect for me, although it was a fivespeed, which I had never driven before. But I will tell you what, it was the easiest fivespeed ever. Not only that, but...

Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 4.0 Recommended: Yes 

Pros: Roomy interior with sporty design
Cons: Expensive maintenance
The Bottom Line: Definite good buy at a great price.

When my husband's car was on its last "leg," we began shopping around for a used car to replace it. (May 2001) By chance, the salesman showed us a sporty little white car that just happened to be in our price range ($5000). We sat down in it and took...

To buy or not to buy
by findleyreview  
Feb 05 '06 
Author's Product Rating: Product Rating: 3.0 Recommended: No 
Pros: seems like it will run forever, maintenance wise nothing major has happened.
Cons: loud when going at a higher speed
This car has done good for the longevity testing in driving many miles however, when you hit a certain speed such as 45 to 50 mph it gets fairly noisy in the car. Most of my complaints are superficial. Such as the dash and the way it is set up. The fact that the illumination on some of the dash lights goes on and off for no apparent reason that can be found. Lack of get up and go even for a 4 cyl. However, that being said it is a well running car that does not seem to have many mechanical problems.
