  Good economical & reliable ride - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By gr8tchr4u - December 18 - 12:19 pm

  I have had my 98 Chevy Metro, automatic transmission, for 12 years. Over the 12 years I have amassed over 180,000 miles. It has been an absolutely reliable, fuel efficient, and extremely durable used car. Aside from replacing the transmission and regular maintenance, I have had to do nothing major to this vehicle. The ride is not spectacular. There is a lot of road noise. It came with a standard AM/FM radio and manual windows and door locks. Quinn hit, the body damage can be extensive because its not solidly built. It crumbles like tinfoil.

  I love this car - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By sarah - August 5 - 11:00 am

  This car has been wonderful to me. I bought it used in 2003 with no clue how to drive a stick. Its very forgiving and easy to learn on. Havent had any problems other than the usual repairs required.

  Whats not to like - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By boaw - May 17 - 9:42 pm

  Never breaks down. More comfortable on long trips than my Subaru Outback. Amazing MPG. Great snow car with proper tires. Fun to drive. You can speed without fear of getting a ticket as cops dont believe their radar. Cost $8,000 new

  Cheap, Great MPG, Low Operating Cost - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By Linda - February 17 - 9:18 am

  40 mpg city without air on. Air drags 3 cyl 5 spd down to 30mpg. Dont expect to get on the freeway unless you turn everything off and downshift to third to get up speed. Im always the last from a light. 50 mph the car runs fantastic, at 70 on freeway it is wound up so tight in 5th gear it is hurting. Repairs have been minor except for a constant unrepairable airconditioning compressor leak. On the 3rd compressor and no air with only 59,000 miles on the car. Cheap cost, great low driving and repair cost - but get what you pay for.

  If youre cheap, youll love it - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By Joe - April 24 - 6:19 pm

  Ok, I admit it I’m cheap. We bought the Metro in 1997 for under $8,000 (including taxes and license). With the wind, it gets around 50 mpg and has never done less than 35. If you are a cheapskate, dont believe the lies about the Metro. The professional review is really misleading and lacks historical perspective. Compared to my other car, a highly- rated 2002 Subaru Outback, it was a heck of a buy. Oh yeah, more comfortable, reliable and fun to drive too.

  Its been a good car for me - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By JS - March 31 - 10:05 pm

  I bought a new Chevy Metro back in 1998. It now has 160,000 miles and is still running fine. I have absolutely no complaints about my Metro. It has served me quite well as a dependable, economical commuter car. It is very fuel efficient and has been very reliable mechanically.

  Metro mania - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By Jay Pope - March 1 - 2:00 am

  This is my second Metro. I got this 1998 2 dr used and have been a bit disappointed at the lower mpg as compared to my 4 dr 93 GEO. Still, with winter cold starts and a commute of only 7 miles city driving to work, I got over 36 mpg. Hope to get 40 mpg with the warmer weather. Wonderful car around town. Fun to drive. Easy to maintain. Resale value is about 100% so far.

  My Metro - 1998 Chevrolet Metro
  By metroman - December 31 - 2:00 am

  I bought My Metro new (1998 model) and drove it 130,000 miles until I ran into a parked SUV. The airbag worked great and I got only a scratch. The car was 100% reliable - it always started and ran good. It gave 40+ miles per gallon. With the rear seat down, the hatch could carry very large items. Ill miss that car, wish they were still building them, Id buy another. Now that I think about it, the only problem was an oil leak, at about 85,000 miles. Good car!
