I wish I had a beater but Im only in high school. Maybe thats why my car has 110000 miles on it.

I was driving a 98 Mirage DE but after my mom sold her car so they can look around for something better the GT has been promoted to DD status

I love it because I enjoy driving this car and it has enough power to get up big hills[&:] but the gas is nasty. I went from about 35 mpg to 18 mpg
