    I like it! Personally, I prefer the clean & simple look. That is actually a very nice Festiva. The bumpers are straight, not much rust, no hail damage, factory alloy wheels and the "swish" stripe. Have you ever tried to polish out the paint? You could re-stain the bumpers, fix the rust on the driver's rear and only paint it from the body side moulding down. Maybe a dark charcoal or something that would look like a factory 2-tone like the Fox body Mustangs.

      Nice clean L Plus. Did it have the alloys when you got it or did you put them on?

              I like it! It's nice and straight. With minimal work it would be a really nice Festiva.

                it's not really my car it's my mom's it's just what i get to drive
                she wants to sell the car but i doubt we'd get very much out of it and wouldn't be able to get anything else
                i'd personally trade it for a pickup as i can do more with a pickup but not my call lol

                    For what little you'd get, you might as well keep it. Cheap on gas, cheap on insurance, cheap to fix and maintain.

                      Ya,don't say that to loud,it will be gone and you will be walking,it might just be a Festiva but it's wheels and I never met a woman yet that wanted to walk to the movie. Good Luck

                        well after a discussion with my mother and showing her some pics of people's cars on this site i have been given the go ahead to do some modding to it
                        first thing will probably be some reliability and such making sure it's a good running car
                        then probably just a simple paint... i hate red HURRAY- maybe flat black not sure yet
                        who knows maybe one day i can make it a rwd doubtful as i'm not very good with this stuff but never know

                          You hate red? That's a very nice festiva! Are you really gonna paint it flat black, like some kinda backwoods redneck hack job? Just buff it

                            ^Buffing and waxing does wonders to a neglected paint job. Try that before you paint.
                            See if it changes your mind. If not, flat black ftw if done properly...
