Comments
Favorite feature:	The body style
Least favorite feature:	Squeals, humming noises, paint coming off car already
Advice to buyer:	It might just be my kind of luck w/cars, but I would NOT recommend this car!
Detailed review:	DO NOT listen to other people who have only test driven this car & think they can judge it already. Well I currently own this car & have been nothing but DISAPPOINTED, especially w/ Toyota's so-called reputation. This car currently has TWO different noises coming from the engine that I have tried to get fixed TWICE, unsuccessfully. (I will be going for the third time next month when I have time) The first noise is a constant HUMMING noise that lasts 2-4 seconds each, and the second noise is a really WEIRD squeal that makes it very embarrassing to have other people ride in your car. The weird squeal has quite a wide range of intensity! It's sometimes loud, sometimes quiet, & sometimes a high squeal versus a low squeal. Very irritating. It's not the belt or tensioner, I've gotten all those changed. I've gotten Toyota Autobody stumped, but I will not stop until I get this irritating noise fixed, and then I will SELL IT & buy a Honda Civic! The only thing that makes me happy about this car is the WARRANTY I bought for it. I wish everyone can test drive my car & experience the annoying squeals & noises that I deal with everyday. I thought I had gone through every car problem in the book w/my last car, but I was wrong. Just because of this car, I will never buy a Toyota again.
Also considered:	N/A
