  2001 Lanos Sport Review - 2001 Daewoo Lanos
  By djohn76 - January 16 - 2:00 am

  The most BANG for your buck! Only wish it got a little better gas milage. But overall excellent performance, style and for the money, comfort. Its too bad that Generous Motors had to pull the plug on the American Based portion. For a large company, they sure were scared of a small company making a dent in their precious sales. I will never buy another General Motors product again.

  the WooWoo.. - 2000 Daewoo Lanos
  By Greyflash - December 31 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car , after my Honda Civic was stolen, not knowing it was a corporate orphan. Nevertheless, It has a better radio (4 spkrs) than my Civic, rear windows pop out, & seats are most comfortable. I had the windows tinted, & installed sheepskin seatcovers. It has been a great car, & dependable. Only expenses in a year & 1/2 are two tires (Fr.), new battery, & wiper blades!

  THis is a really great car. Its unfortunate that they dont make them in the US anymore. I havent had a single problem with it ever. If they were still made here I would buy another in a heart beat!

  Dont Rely on Reliability - 2001 Daewoo Lanos
  By Shane Centers - October 26 - 1:00 am

  Weve owned this car for 2 years, and it has been one big piece of hell! The fuel injectors keep clogging, and Budget keeps making on us by using the cleaning solutions to clean them, $89.99 each time for 3 times, and we have to keep fighting to use the warranty to replace the injectors. Sound system for factory is awesome, but just dont depend on its reliability.

  Good, for now... - 2001 Daewoo Lanos
  By Daewho? - August 7 - 2:00 am

  I have had the car since 2001 with only 28 miles on it. I know have over 40,000 miles on it and the only problem I have had with it is replacing the upper coolant hose & O ring. Not bad, but I had to overnight the parts, otherwise it would take 4-5 days just to get the part. Plus, my dealrhsip doesnt deal with Daewoos anymore so if I need a repair I have to go somewhere else, and Daewoo dealers are getting scarece. I do enjoy the size, as I am in Chicago and parking there is tough, but not for me! And you cant beat $13 for gas each week, and I drive well over 200 miels a week.

  The Good and the Bad - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By birdgs - August 5 - 2:00 am

  I love driving my little sports car. Ive put over 49,000 miles on it and dont worry about the transmission or engine. The car is very responsive. Since owning the car, Ive had the battery replaced, and my air conditioning compressor has broke. It has been real hard find a salvage A/C compressor since I cant find brand new parts. Also, on windy days, the outside mirrors make terrible howling/whistling noises. Finally, I have a terrible rattle in the dash. It makes a lot of noise on all but the smoothest roads.

  Its really not bad! - 1999 Daewoo Lanos
  By experienceduser - July 7 - 2:00 am

  Id heard a lot of talking low about korean cars. But my daewoo lanos 99 surprised me. I bought it a pre-owned 3 years ago and have driven it over 36k. It never had a reliablity and quality problem. I recently drove it many times of long distance. It runs very smooth and accelates fast (imagine its a 95hp small car!). Its actually fun driving it.
