My main reason would be rust, before you buy it check the frame around the front suspension!
I would also opt for not buying one because of age and I don't really like driving Geo Metro's while Honda's are a much much more comfortable car with a solid feel to them.

I'd look at a Honda Insight because they are reaching the bottom of their value right now and they will not rust out, all of the Honda Insights around here still look brand new while all of the Geo Metros around here are loosing chunks of rust as they drive down the road, it will take an extra year or so for it to pay for it's self but I think it would be worth it in the long run.
