This car a a great value for the miles it had and the year it is. Runs very good and a very good first car. The car was not too dirty. Dirty enough for me to clean but it is a great value for a car :)Aug 05, 2021

It's a nice car if you want something a little flashy but don't want to spend too much money. It has also been very reliable to drive to and from work with this car. On long trips it has been comfortable and a lot of things fit in this compact car surprisingly. Mar 04, 2015
