  chevy-- bring back the metro - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By nigelbrain - August 22 - 12:16 pm

  when it was around it got the best gas mileage and a superior epa rating. i still drive my 2001 chevy metro but wish they had made the hatchback in their last year. the 3 cylinder engine gave me 48 mpg- my current sedan is 37mpg. bring back the metro. make it even smaller with a choice of electric or 3 cylinder gas engine. make it bare bones and affordable for students and the working poor caregivers like me. make a hatchback and a micro mini van version.

  Grasshoper - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By sweet4_candie - November 9 - 10:37 am

  What would I do without my metro? I drive 25 miles one way to community college everyday sometimes having to go twice or three times a day because of my classes. I bought this car with only 65,000 miles on it and I now have 105,00. It has definitely done me well. I mostly only drive highway and it gets an astonishing 37 mpg. It has some get up and go because of how light it is but it lacking some power when going uphill. Ive had no Major issues with this car since ownership. It has been absolutely great!

  My Metro did its job, and very well! - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By dragonfly2005 - April 4 - 12:19 am

  I bought this metro used with about 40,000 miles after I graduated high school. It was fair priced for it being newer at the time with few miles. It ran great up until about 65,000 miles when a cam sensor went out which cost about $200 to get fixed. I performed routine oil changes and have had nothing else go wrong (except normal wear and tear on tires and breaks). I have hit about 82,000 miles and it feels like the CV joint is going out, but i havent brought her in yet so Im not for sure. Id say the car was a great buy for the price and actually exceeded my expectations. It was a little shy on the power, but once you got up to speed it stays there!

  01 Metro Review - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By RushFan2112 - July 20 - 7:38 pm

  All in all its a good car for the price. Its not very comfortable, its pretty loud, and struggles going uphill. It is surprisingly a pretty zippy car, as long as youre not going uphill. It gets good gas mileage on highways, but poor mileage in the city. It is what it is, affordable, economy car. Its very reliable, I have never had any problems with it that any other car wouldnt have.

  Safe car to drive - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By petsr4ever05 - December 30 - 12:09 pm

  I live out in the country and have to drive 36 miles (one way) to work and back every day. Everyone kept telling me that if I ever hit a deer with my little car, I would not survive the collision. Well, about a month ago I was cruising along at about 60 miles an hour and a big buck jumped right out in front of me. I never had time to even put on the brakes. I hit it broadside going at least 60. The airbags deployed, and I was able to pull over to the side of the road. It killed the deer, and it killed my car (a complete and total loss), but I didnt have a scratch on me. Now I know that even the small cars do have enough protection for the driver to survive that kind of collision.

  Solid little car - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By mebrich - October 29 - 5:22 pm

  I bought this car as a puddle jumper to get to and from work. I have been pleasantly surprised by this little car. Suzuki did a good job with the engine. Honestly the car is what it is, a small economy car. The only complaint I have with it is that it is noisy on the interior. Engine noise, especially at higher speeds, basically over 65 mph.

  Cute, cute, cute!! - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By kamoten - September 29 - 3:28 pm

  We bought this little car used for our son who goes to college 45 miles from home (90 miles daily in our van was killing us on gas!). It gets between 32 and 38 mpg, so we are very happy with it. It is compact enough to park anywhere (great advantage on a college campus), it is cute enough that our son is not embarassed to drive it, and it has enough safety features to please us as parents (dual airbags!). We changed the factory cassette player/stereo for a CD changer stereo and our son is very happy. I comment on how cute the car is every time he pulls out of the driveway! Were very happy with our purchase. The dealer gave us top dollar for our van and we got a great little car in return.

  not bad - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By array - October 21 - 2:00 am

  i got this car for 3000.00 not to bad for a 2001. the only thing that has gone out on the car is the camshaft sensor, other then that the car has been pretty reliable. it shakes when you go over 60 though but it takes corners good and it fits almost anywhere. so all in all its a good little car.

  lemon - 2001 Chevrolet Metro
  By debbie j - July 29 - 2:00 am

  I bought this car used with 14,000 miles and still under warranty. I took it to the dealership three times while still under warranty about the automatic transmission and the air conditioning not working. I was told there was nothing wrong with the car and I was making a fuss about nothing.. Needless to say, at 39,000 miles I founght myself having to put in another transmission. Now at 62,000 miles I find myself having to put in another. The air condtioning is in need of gas again for the third time although the mechanic stated there was no leak when he checked it. I got burned badly on this lemon and cannot get enough trade to be rid of it! I am stuck with a lemon.
