Fun reliable car you can beat on
Got this car used in 2016 with 62k miles. Few years down the line I’m now at 130k with the only issue being the clutch needs replacing soon. Great car and very reliable! I definitely don’t drive this car nicely and it’s been holding up great. More impressed the ac works perfectly when I’ve seen some
Chevys fail there by now.

The best car I’ve ever owned.
Even used, this vehicle impressed me endlessly. From the speed and power to the handling and fuel efficiency. It’s been my daily driver for almost 8 months and I honestly plan on getting another newer one (if they make it) after my SX dies.
