Excellent vehicle handles well
by Patti on 10/23/2021 10:57:17 PM
I got this car used in 2016 from my ex who took very good care of it. That being said it needed practically nothing the first 8 or so years. Everything is upgraded like the timing chain, not belt, and the electronic clutch, not a cable, so it needs very little maintenance. Brakes were changed out at 169k+ as they were glazed but they looked new. I just put $4,000 in it this year. A full set of tires, shocks, front struts and sensors, front end alignment, plus labor. I need to get some electric work done so figure another $1000.00. That will bring the total per month to $83.33 for the past 5 years as far real maintenance goes. - 5.0
Mean Cute Best Awesome Car I hate to let it go
by Andres V.. on 5/11/2021 9:33:10 PM
The car is Fantastic. It does everything ,A sporty Ride, with the capacity of a SW (My GF dog and I slept comfortable on the car in rainy camping) The gas mileage is excellent for the feel you get in return. Reliability Awesome, cheap parts, easy labor.. this car is a workhorse.. and ages really well.. it looks clean and up to date after 14 years?, Manuals are the best.. This machine is wayy more reliable than a GTI. I have to let it go because it got vandalized badly and the repair is worth more than the cost of the vehicle, the Engine, trans, suspension everything is in peak order.. I drove it for 30K of its 178,000 miles.. bought it used. 3 owners.. . worked like a Clock .. - 5.0
Great daily driver

Fuel economy should be better (26mpg av.) but there's tons of torque and it's fun to drive. Pretty quiet unless you have non standard tires, wheels or intake/exhaust. Oil changes once a year and I've only experienced one repair that was difficult to diagnose, but now it has been trouble free for a couple years. I'm at 130k and the shocks probably need done soon.
