An agile sport compact car.

I bought my se-r, used in December of 1998. It had only 4300 miles. The 2.0 liter sr20de engine was the selling point for me. All alloy block and head with 4 valves per cylinder. Strong bottom end has whats called a crank girdle and a 2 piece structural oilpan. This type of engineering is only found on high end sports cars. I've owned chevys, fords, and even a dodge. None have given the long term reliable service that this car has. It now has 53,400 miles. Only one warranty repair. Done for free. Loves to run hard and never falters. Brakes are outstanding, with 4 wheel disc. I've replaced one set of tires and shocks. The sound system could be better, but thats not why I bought it. It could have a little more room, but its my commuter. In the winter I average 30-32 mpg. In the summer, with the AZ heat it drops to 24-25. Oil and filter are about the only routine maintenance. The paint is excellent no chips or spiderwebs.
