SC | 08/28/09 | 4.00 | I bought this car, as the second owner, in 2002 with 98k on her, and she has 189k at the moment. The only major mechanical issue I had was when I had the tranny rebuilt ($1300) at 175k, everything else has been normal maintenance to date. She still rides, handles, accelerates, blows cold A/C, etc. just like she did in `02, even after the rear end job. . .
The real reason I love this car is for the safety factor. My wife was on her way home, with two of my younger kids SEAT BELTED in the back seat, and she was rear ended by a 2002 Ford Ranger going 45 mph. To make a long story short, the only comments she heard at the accident scene from the surrounding police officers, fire fighters, and other pedestrians was; "OMG, the kids are not even scratched, and the car looks like it has not even been hit by another vehicle going 45! I need to go out and get an Acura today!" That is what she consistently heard as the accident scene was being cleared up.
So you tell me, can you really score this car any lower than a 4 based on those facts, and comments? If you have real mechanical issues with this car, well, I blame that on individual driving preferences. No car, not even a Lexus, driven like it was stolen day in, and day out will last. I truly feel that if I had bought this car new, the tranny would still be the original. . . Anyway, I'll post another comment at 350k LOL!
