  Boring and Dependable - 1999 Chevrolet Prizm
  By rozellium - September 17 - 2:00 am

  We needed a cheap car with low monthly payments that we could count on. The Prizm hasnt let us down a bit. With almost 60, 000 miles, weve had absolutely no problems other than routine maintenance like brakes. However, this no luxury vehicle. It pretty cramped, makes lots of noise especially on the highway, and doesnt have the most comfortable ride. Nothing to get excited about, but then again if your looking at a Corolla/Prizm you probably not the exciting type.

  Solid But Bland - 1998 Chevrolet Prizm
  By Jim Of Oak Creek - September 16 - 2:00 am

  The Cheverolet Prism is really a Toyota Corolla. Both cars come off the same assembly line in the Toyota/GM Plant in California. My wife has been the major driver since we bought it in 1998. The car performs adequately, gets great gas milage, and is extremely reliable. We have never had a problem with the car. The styling on the Prism/Corolla is quite bland, both inside and out. I am tall, 65", and can drive the car fine but it is a bit constraining. Over all, a good solid relaible car a bit on the small side with bland syling.

  I have had my car for almost 2 years now. NO problems at all. EXCELLENT gas mileage. Not the best car for someone with kids. Too small.

  55,000 miles and still going strong. - 1998 Chevrolet Prizm
  By JimNC - August 4 - 2:00 am

  I now have owned my 1998 Prizm since new and am very satified. It has never been to the dealer for a repair. Only gas, oil changes, and tires have been required. My only real compliant is the lack of legroom. Even with the seat all the way back I need another inch or so and Im only 511". The ride is quiet and smooth for this size car - handling is a not very crisp. Average 30-31 MPG with 4-sp automatic. Not very exciting, but excellent basic transportation.

  2000 Prizm - 2000 Chevrolet Prizm
  By Prizm Owner - July 27 - 2:00 am

  I purchased my Prizm used two weeks ago. I demand a lot from my vehicles and this car has delivered. You get a Corolla engine, heck the whole Corolla, for less money. I just down sized from a 4Runner and I am not dissapointed.

  What a car! - 2002 Chevrolet Prizm
  By PRizm - July 24 - 2:00 am

  The 1.8 liter engine pumps out a lot of ponies for its size. I was very happy with the way the thing took off. I think that the 3 spped auto is a joke and the 4 speed is the way to go. On previous models, the 3-speed was the only auto and Chevrolet changed it and added fuel economy bu the little overdrive button on the shifter. Great car. It is a shame they are discontinuing the Prizm.

  What a car! - 2002 Chevrolet Prizm
  By tcooper - July 22 - 2:00 am

  I purchased my Prizm in 1996, it was a 1995. granted it is not the car to pick up the ladies, but as a dad, it is it the best commuter vehicle I have ever owned! NO LIE! I have 106,000 miles on this car and I can list the items I have repaired, brakes Front and rear, 1 head light, 1 taillight. that is it! I am not the best at performing maintenance, but it does not seem to matter with this car. I drive 25miles to work each way and get 40MPG pretty regularly. after 6 years, I would like to buy another car, but why??? That will be the biggest problem you ever have with the car, it trying to justify getting rid of it.

  Rock Solid Car - 2000 Chevrolet Prizm
  By Jnorris - July 10 - 2:00 am

  Great car. Could be a little larger inside, but Im 63 and I still do fit OK. Very smooth, no rattles, no noise, very solid feel. Everything feels mechanically perfect. Everything does what its supposed to in the manner its supposed to do it. Its a shame Cheverolet will not continue to sell these.

  By chevy prizm-ner - July 6 - 2:00 am

  You cannot go wrong if you want a station to station car. It is a vanilla type car compared to a fancy flavor. There is no excitement in this car but it will get you there and back.
