What a good surprise! - 2000 Suzuki Esteem
By Squirrel - October 19 - 11:03 pmCar was two years old and had 30,000 miles on it at purchase. Id read good reviews, but my expectations were low. I was just looking for a cheap little wagon to drive for a while. I tested a 1.6L, but it was underpowered. The 1.8L is way better. I liked that the 1.8L wouldnt need timing belt replacement, since it has a chain. Well, Ive been surprised by how much I love this car. Its cute, extremely peppy, and fits a ton of stuff. Its amazingly reliable. In five years, Ive put 30,000 miles on it, mostly vacation driving. Weve taken it out on the road for weeks at a time without a worry. Its been from sea level to Colorado mountain tops. Its a champ.

Great car! - 2000 Suzuki Esteem
By Laurak - April 27 - 5:33 pmI am the original owner. I bought it in 2000 as a dealer employee car. I paid $9,000.00 for it w/ 45 miles on it. It now has 138,200 and only thing it has had is brakes, battery & tires! Plus regular check-ups! I hate to part with it but the time has come. So will replace with another Suzuki. I am more than happy with the preformance of my Esteem. Great on gas. 36-38 mpg. I certainly got my moneys worth! Best car Ive ever owned!

In High Esteem - 2000 Suzuki Esteem
By high esteem - August 30 - 2:00 amMy car has the 1.8L engine and 14" wheels. Built in Japan. Clutch/shifter is ultra smooth and easy, smooth ride, comfortable, and relatively quiet (compared to even Mazda Protege and Honda Civic). Excellent sight lines, supportive seat (Im tall). Leg room about the same as other small cars. Fun to drive. Precise steering, mild body lean. Nice stereo sound. No mechanical problems.
