This car is a beast! I am the second owner, purchased it in 1998, car has run with minimal problems all these years (I replaced the starter and the clutch within the last 10 years, tires and tune-up within the last 1 1/2 years). Some cosmetic issue with the body, but mechanically this car is sound. I'm only selling because a relative is gifting me a newer model car. This would be a great commuter car or first car for a teenager. Great gas mileage: about 30 mpg city and close to 40 highway. Very reliable, starts up with no hesitation even on the coldest winter day, and is great in ice and snow, I've never gotten stuck. A/C blows cold and heat works great.
