OP, good luck with the sale.

I have the same car but a 2005. Gets 31-34 mpg on the highway at 70-75 mph. Rides and handles surprisingly well. Has plenty of room, especially with the rear seat folded forward. I also use mine to go to the range and I almost always carry way too much stuff!! The 4-cylinder engine in them has a very good reputation. With good maintenance, routine oil changes, etc. I've heard of people getting 200K-250K miles out of them. Mine has 122K on it now and I'm expecting to double that. The 5-spd trans and the factory gearing make for a pretty stout little car that accelerates well.

Not trying to come off as a saleman, just tossing out some addditional info for the OP.

Later,
BK

Do you have pics of the hail damage?

Post by **inthewaterky** » Mon Sep 10, 2012 6:11 pm

No the camera I have doesn't capture it very good. The car runs good if you don't care about the cosmetics of it...

My brother seemed to be interested when I shown him this thread but he wants to see the damage a little better. Not sure why, every car he has ever own has had dents within dents.

Be more than willing to let him come look at it

I'm trying to talk him into looking but he's a lazy bastard, runs in the family.

My brother has express interest in this and has asked me to take pics of the damage.

Shocked this is still here!!!

He said if the damage is not too bad he will probably take it.

The damage is bad enough that they issued a salvage title. It looks like a golf ball on the top panels. It runs fine if you can get over the cosmetics. Don't want to waste your time or mine as free time is what I am lacking lately.

All I keep getting out of him now when I ask
Do you want to look at it
is "I don't know"

Usual pattern, drive me nuts.
