I used to own a firebird, but I had to trade it in for a bigger car cause my 2 year old was getting to big for the back seat. I found this car place and went in and met with the owner, told him I didn't want a piece of crap car because I have a daughter to look out for, since I have had the car it has been nothing but money and problems. The car I traded in for had no problems. He had told me that the car was in great shape, it had new tires, and brakes, and it runs great. Since then I have had to replace the muffler, new tires, new brakes, defroster does not work, need a radiator, I'm a single parent with low income I can't afford to fix the car everytime something goes wrong.
