Review

i have had this car for a yr and so far is a really fun car to drive, it's a head turner, every where u go, everyone knows wat time of car it is because they don't make them anymore, to me its a special car n up to this point i wouldn't get rid of it for anything, it has been my first can since i started driving it and i love the fact that being the yr that it is its great and performs great just like if it was new

Favorite Features

the fact that its rear wheel drive

Suggested Improvements

they should've put an limited slip differential because the car has a lot of power

Review

i love this car. starts out as a pretty decent car but with mods this car goes far and becomes an amazing car to drive.

Favorite Features

Suggested Improvements

the stock seats are pretty lame and the stock shocks and springs are way to soft but i guess that is why the ride is pretty nice and soft to start with.

Review

Love the car to 220,000 miles :) Strengths : Handling is awesome, turning radius can't be beat. 12 valve Engine is reliable mechanically, with very few problems electrically, a timing CHAIN !! Rear wheel drive that makes the car a DREAM to drive on dry pavement. Good Cali car. Weaknesses: 1. Exhaust manifold bolts @ 60,000 and 120,000 mi. :( 2. Slippery on wet pavement when accelerating forward, side slip negligable on corners @ 70mph wet. 3. Injectors leaking badly at 125,000 :( 4. Sensors, fan clutch and radiator replaced at 100,000 mi. :| 5. Timing chain changed at an astounding 150,000 miles :) 6. 210,000 mi. front seat broke. :| 7. front oil seal @ 100,000 :| Nice car, worth it :)

Favorite Features

Handles very good, even at 200,000 miles with NO work done on the suspension. Comfortable seats while cornering hard. Body style is always in style. Engine is reliable, with few quirks. A keepable car. Lock it good as teens like it for the perfect front to back weight distribution.

Suggested Improvements

Recall the injectors as was done with the 300zx !

Review

This was my first car. I love the feel of a rear wheel drive car and the stick makes it fun to drive. It isn't the fastest thing in the world, but does hold its own. It was never meant for more than one passenger. The paint is faded and peeling and the interior is ripping, but the car is after all sixteen years old. Mechanical problems have been minimal and easily and inexpensively fixed.

Favorite Features

Peek-a-boo headlights, ability to hug the curves, sleek look.

Suggested Improvements

Exhaust system for better sound
