Portland Craigslist:

Because....45 MPG. -
Here's the company site:
I'm currently investigating.
Specs:
So far nothing on engine size or origin. It does use 155/80-13 radials. Seems to have an 'add-on" heater unit.
Current models have 61 hp and a four speed auto. OHC.
Vehicle weight listed as 1435 pounds, but models will vary depending on options.
Hmmmm...
Well I just sent an inquiry as to engine size and brand, etc. I wonder if they're still using the B3, and if the CL person is correct in that description? I should find out soon if their email form goes through and they deign to answer me.
Ah, just found this tidbit:
A "55 hp Hyundai engine." They are talking about the '03 model. These may have once used the B3, but probably not any more. The switch to Hyundai makes some sense, considering the merger of Hyundai and Kia.

I vaguely remember seeing another one of these for sale. I like how they still use the Festiva shifter. Probably meant for meter maids or grounds crewsAxlander9289, brother of ThisVelologist

Has anyone ever seen any "meter maid" cars in the junkyards?
Gov't auctions?
I've never seen any.

Just be careful that you don't go around corners too fast. It looks kinda top-heavy to me.Comment
