Faults:

I abused this car by towing without the towing package, and by not changing oil regularly. So understandably I needed transmission work at about 80K and a valve job at about 150K... I'm not complaining here, but rather I am trying to be complimentary.

Nothing else beyond normal wear and tear.

General Comments:

Have really enjoyed owning this car. Am the original owner. The car is still going, I drive it to work everyday.

Very comfortable ride and seats.

Lots of power.

Uses quite a bit of oil now with over 200,000 miles... this is not a complaint.

Great gas mileage on the highway... the overdrive gives as high as 33 mpg highway. Regularly got 30-31 highway.

I would not get the paint protection coating again (cost $995). I didn't have to wax the car for about 5 years, but the paint seemed to deteriorate under the coating, although it might also have been the type of grey paint with clear coat... the grey got all mottled. I don't know if the dealer coated my plastic bumper, but the bumper started to flake off a clear coating after about 7 years.

I was never extremely happy with the steering (front wheel drive). It seemed to understeer and then oversteer immediately after having to apply too much wheel in a turn. Not real bad though, just a relatively minor flaw. I felt like I constantly had to make minor steering corrections.

Faults:

NOTHING!!! Just regular servicing.

General Comments:

Excellent car! It has been on many trips and has never quit. It is comfortable and has more power than ever!

With 255,000 miles on it, however, it is starting to fail. It burnes oil, leaks antifreeze, and smokes. But it has been a wonderful car and worth every penny!
