Best car purchase I ever made.

The car is almost 25 years old and is exceptionally reliable. Have 380,000 miles on it and still change oil every 3k miles. Car gets very good gas mileage and rides very well. Cosmetically good but does have several minor dings and scratches. Interior very good for all the use its gotten over the years. Still have original exhaust system. Without a doubt the most reliable car I have ever owned.

The car went 17 years

The 'Toyota Buick'. It floated like a 1980s GM, but with reliability that lasted 17 years. Engine still turned over easy when I finally gave t up. The hoses/ belts/ underbody was just torn up from 17 yrs of PA/NY/MA winters. Do note the catalytic converter had to replaced twice.
