This is the best all around used car for the money. I'm getting great mileage and it has a surprisingly comfortable ride. Also found parts are cheap and easy to find

Comfortable front bucket seats and plenty of leg room for a six footer

Start making a simple to maintain model like this again

This is a very reliable car. It feels as though it knows exactly what I want. This car has gone over 300 miles a week at times with no problems. Handles very well in snow condition

Review

I too purchased this car new. Back in 1990 there wasn't much to choose from for that price with a 6 cylinder. It was well taken care of & garaged but had too many problems. The engine was pulled to replace a freeze plug, transmission was weak from day one, ignition tumbler broke (had to be towed) the battery imploded (towed again), head gasket went, high beams failed, radio worked intermittently, heater stop working, finally the main seal and cam seal went at the same time. The body is still perfect and it has the original exhaust system. This car has 121000 miles.

Favorite Features

Wheels, lumbar support in driver's seat

Suggested Improvements

Better engine, bigger rear view mirrors

Review

This was my first car that I bought a little less than a year ago and I have not had any problems at all. When I bought it, it only had 55,000 miles. The A/C is awesome and the only maintainence I have needed has been a normal oil change.

Favorite Features

The air conditioning. Also, it accelerates nice--when you put the pedal to the metal, but not on hills.

Suggested Improvements

The radio is not very good. The bass will only work when I go fast enough and the radio is really loud. I also have had some problems accelerating from a stop on a hill.
