Hello everyone,
Just wanted to say Hi and thank you to everyone who contributes to the forums.
I'm not a GA owner yet, but I'm shopping for my first car purchase at age 28.
Previous cars were hand me downs:
1978 Chevy Malibu from 1994-1996
1989 Chevy Celebrity from 1997-present
Neither of which had/has Air Conditioning, you will note that I live in Florida.
So far I have test drove a GA SE1, Buick Century, and a Saturn L200.
Turns out I am not a Buick kinda guy.
the 2003 L200 was great, and nice pep for a 4 cyl, but the road noise was unbearable for me. I have really good hearing, and the constant wind, engine, and road noise was atrocious to me. Loved it otherwise.
The 2003 GA SE1 is at the top of my list. My only issues with it are the small back passenger space, but I'm driving so not that big a deal :) ... but the thing that is keeping me from just loving the car is the cheap plasticy dash board controls... And it bothers me more than I would like to admit.. any opinions or suggestions on this?
Anyway, I just wanted to say Hi, and thank everyone for contributing to the forum. I have been reading around and the information here has been really helpful. Any other knowledge will be gratefully accepted!
take Care,
Dragonwings
