Thought I'd put up a new post with actual pictures of my car. The old boy has been serving me faithfully, and shouldn't need work for awhile. Tires are good, just replaced almost the entirety of the rear brakes, fixed the trunk release after 3 years of it not working, cleared the yellowing on the headlights and tided up a scrape from stem to stern on the driver's side. It may seem like a piece of trash, but it's my piece of trash and I love it. If it can last me the next five years, that would be perfect.
At the endless mocking of my brother, I actually take the time every one or two months to vacuum the inside, polish the windows, and give it a solid wash and wax over the whole outside. I'm aware the clear coat over the paint is peeling off, but I don't really have the money to get that redone or the skill to do it myself.
Take care of a car and it will take care of you.
As far as actual car information, it's a 5-speed manual with a 1.5 L 4-cylinder engine.
Back when my dad bought it (2000) it was the cheapest version he could get. Manual windows, absolutely no power locks, two doors only, no anti-lock brakes, etc.
None of this has been a problem except my girlfriend never remembers to lock her door when she gets out.
Also, check the perfect 1:00 AM license plate Photoshop job.
