6 City / 19 Highway Miles a day
Pros: A used one is a great value for the $; Engine is powerful and durable, love the wrap-around dash, leather interior comes standard; 12 year old car still gets compliments from the ladies.
159,000 miles and engine still runs well.
Cons: Poor foresight in headlight design
Rating: *****

Hehehe...when I was 16, my first car was a Ford Maverick -- bright orange with a ratty black cloth interior -- it looked like Halloween on wheels and not at ALL like the snazzy pix you posted of YOUR first ride. So even though in your garage profile you say "i know my Mark isnt anything special", trust me, that's NOT true. It may not be all tricked out like some of the Marks in this forum, but that doesn't mean it's not special -- coz it IS.

ya know, I've never really "just" sat back there.....never noticed a lack of room either...., ahhh, ya gotta push the front seats up.
Didin't know the back wasn't ment for real passengers, they just mess things up anyway (nice for trunk wieghts though).

-Male 21
-I average 40 miles a day b/c I take long commutes to Chicago from Iowa City every so often.
-I like the looks, performance, comfort, and that it is pretty unique (I see more Corvettes than Marks)
-I don't like my transmission, my air suspension, or the rust that is starting to form because I'm paying for all of that right now and I'm not rich.
- 4.5/5 Stars simply because this is starting to become expensive to repair but I would never give it up because I love this thing.
