At 149,000 miles the tranny fluid is clear and lightly tinted in color. The tranny is shifting as good as the first test drive with out any interference by me. If you check all your fluids regularly, you will love this car because that is the key to car ownership success! I changed the timing belt at 111,000 miles but only because I felt if it broke it would take out the engine but it was running flawlessly at the time. I keep it immaculate with frequent washing and waxing and oils changes avg at 5000 mile intervals. The car is very sporty with brushed aluminum pedals and instrumentation along with quality upholstery that after nine years shows very little wear and no tears anywhere. The design of the SX model from the slightly flared fenders to the rear spoiler and ground effects is is still surprisingly sharp after all these years. Rob I've had my 07 Spectra SX for going on 9 yrs now and I have no complaints what so ever. Poor fuel economy, no standard ABS, sluggish acceleration with the auto tran, and seat comfort are downsides. Solid handling and good head and legroom (for a compact) are some upsides to the 2007 Spectra. Both the SX and Spectra 5 wagon feature a sports-tuned suspension, with stronger shocks and thicker anti-sway bars, along with sports seats, leather trim, cruise control and fog lights. The 2007 Spectra has six airbags, including side and side curtain, but ABS is only optional on the SX and Spectra5.
The upscale EX adds air conditioning and more upscale features. The LX is the base model, and though it has power features (including heated mirrors), it does not have air conditioning. On the inside, the dash was redesigned, chrome trim was added to the EX, and an MP3 player was added to the options for the SX. The SX and Spectra5 also got a new grille, an integrated front spoiler, new 16-inch alloy wheels, and ground effects. The exterior received a new grille, revised front and rear ends, new taillights and headlights, and a decklid on EX and LX models. The compact sedan gained an inch in length, for a little more legroom.

All feature a 2.0-liter, 138-hp DOHC I4 engine with either a standard 5-speed manual or optional new 4-speed automatic. The 2007 Spectra is available as a Spectra5 hatchback, or LX, EX, and new sportier SX sedan. Slightly larger than the subcompact Rio, and sharing a platform with the Hyundai Elantra, the 2007 Kia Spectra gets a facelift inside and out and a new sporty SX sedan version of the Spectra5 hatchback.
