General Comments:
For the first car you want find anything better. Performance OK, I've spent 500-600 dollars on this car over last year. After a long ride it's become very uncomfortable and boring... especially when you're more than 6' tall.
I would like more foot space in it, and more power... in the mountains you have to use 3rd gear all the time.. and it makes so much noise while driving. Toyota very reliable, but if you want to have some fun to drive - don't buy it.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I am the author of this review and I am writing this as an update. This car is now about to turn 324,000 miles. It is still running great.
At 320,000 miles I replaced the distributor for $200 and at 323,000 I had a pulley idler replaced for $73. This car continues to be fantastic. I'm still expecting to make it to 500,000 miles or more. :)
