pro-
*fairly light
*can carry 5 people
*easy to find replacement parts
*reliable(no real problem yet(170k km), 1 O2 sensor, 1 coil pack(i got 2 for 40bux on ebay)).

---------------
con-
*plastic headlight- scratches and dulls overtime
*if you get auto, you're left with 4 speed, which struggles up hills.
*brake rotors do overheat coming down cypress/seymour
*cheap interior(plastic, fake leather looking plastic, did i mention plastic?
*engines hard to work on, unless you have an engine lift, i have to do the water pump/timing belt, will need to lift the engine. Having said that, it's not a huge minus.
*have to use the obdii(sp?) for aircare.
