  Overlooked and Underpriced - 1992 Geo Metro
  By Lamar Simmons - May 27 - 8:48 pm

  I was a skeptic to actually drive a three cylinder engine. However, the chassis is so light that the engine has enough pep to power the only car I have ever driven with under a ton of weight. The convertible top is easy to operate and aesthetically pleasing giving this car a far better look than any of its siblings.

  Geo metro in the world - 1996 Geo Metro
  By Steve Purcell - April 6 - 2:23 pm

  The best car to own, it hugs corners on its lo pro 13 inch rims, and easily modified. My geo has an upgraded performance custom exhaust system and short shift kit. Plans to turbocharge it when time is available. Awesome care, head turner.

  great little buggy - 1991 Geo Metro
  By D. P. - December 6 - 5:59 pm

  Great gas mileage, good performance, reliable, cheap to own, can park in small spaces, U-turn in 30 ft. Had problems with fixtures like window crank, radio volume control, minor stuff. Engine and powertrain very reliable, little maintenance. Accelerates quickly, but a bit underpowered on long steep hills.

  Geo Metro an Excellent Car - 1996 Geo Metro
  By brawny - November 9 - 4:15 pm

  Ive put 50,177 miles on my Geo in the last 5 years. I get between 40-45 miles per gallon, depending on city or hwy. Most of my driving is a combination of the two. The only repairs Ive had to make is a new muffler (the core rusted off). Its very reliable, starts up even after sitting a couple months in storage. Its easy to park, turn around in tight places, has a seperate trunk that is huge, amazing feature for this trim car. I do wish it had a rear defroster sometimes, but the heater is very adequate even in January in IL.

  lovin the gas mileage! - 1994 Geo Metro
  By MelissaMo - November 9 - 6:45 am

  Ive had my Metro since Sept 2003 with 81,000 miles on it. It now has 106k on it. I drive it a lot and it has been very dependable. The only thing Ive had to buy for mine was a muffler when I first got it and a new battery, not to mention the regular oil changes and the tune up. I will be doing that again soon as winter is approaching. One thing though ... both windows are off track and the door handles broke off easy ... Im not sure if this is a common Metro problem or not. But, you can still get out of it. I need to buy a new antenna since mine has broken off from parking under a tree and need to possibly buy a new hood because of hail damage.

  Just keeps going and going and going - 1996 Geo Metro
  By Susannah Brighton - June 21 - 2:00 am

  Got the car brand new in 1996 and drove it for 8 years and 78,000 VERY hard city miles. I could have driven the car into the ground but the AC went out and it cost more to fix than the car was worth. (Someone who didnt need AC could have driven the car for five more years at a minimum.) It was a great little city car but as other vehicles got larger and larger it didnt feel as safe as it should have been. But you could park it anywhere, repair work was reasonably priced, and nobody would ever, ever want to steal it.

  born to run - in town - 1994 Geo Metro
  By zbraguy - May 5 - 2:00 am

  Made for city driving, not the interstate. Been driving it on a 55 mile daily round trip sinced January. Makes the trip very inexpensively, but at a cost to comfort.

  Could be better - 1996 Geo Metro
  By asauder - April 19 - 2:00 am

  My experience with this car has been poor. We burned up a transmition a week after we got it. As far as fuel- it kicks butt.

  Good A to B, but watch out @ high mileag - 1994 Geo Metro
  By puckeater43609 - March 20 - 2:00 am

  Great little car with great gas mileage, but a little imtimidating if taken of the highway (youre no taller than semi-truck tires). Lots of repair/replacement work done @ 100,000 miles and above. Good disposeable car, but dont expect this cool little powered go-cart to last forever!
