1990 Geo Storm GSi 2dr Hatchback
I have owned car since new 26 years ago and still looks like new , it is an everyday driver and has recently been driven all over the country . Has been on the Route 66 Trip round trip and still has the factory Freon from assembly line blowing ice cold. The car was made by Isuzu for Chevy and the only thing Chevy is the badge . Best car I have ever owned or will own , don't know about … yours or one you might find but if you bought one new and took care of it properly you know what I am talking about for sure ! THIS CAR WAS OVER BUILT PERIOD ! Would never sell the best car I have ever owned , who would and for what reason?..............Everything in this review is still a true statement one year later on 1 25 2017 .Would like to see how far or how long this car will last, still looks and runs great !
Still have the car as of 1-27-18 and running strong , doing 6800 rpm. shifts daily . Had to let the factory freon go as I replaced the heater core and it could not be avoided . Converted air conditioning system to 134a, it is also working strong. Knocking on the door of 145,000 miles and recent replacements include......
Heater core as stated.
Factory freon converted to 134a.
Fuel pump and strainer.
Both half axles , one was clicking.
Headlight relay .
4 new tires .
Rebuilt alternator.
Replaced pcv. valve
Replaced 4 new champion plugs.
Replaced oxygen senor.
Replaced spark plug wires .
Replaced cap and rotor.
Replaced ignition coil .
Replaced egr. valve.
Cleaned throttle body.
Oil and filter changed .
All wiper blades replaced.
Windshield washer pump.
Installed Satellite Radio replaced speakers.
Not doing anything different then I have ever done with any car ! If you take care of them they take care of you!
Have a friend who's 1990 storm G'S I just turned 300k.
I also burn non leaded non ethanol 89 octane marine fuel which is easy to get as I live on a barrier island . This is what the car was designed to burn , 25/34 mpg. All fluids in car have been switched to synthetic , NO LEAKS....ZERO !
The key to long lasting gasoline engines is simple......
Maintenance and a CAST IRON BLOCK!

HAPPY MOTORING!

1990 Geo Storm GSi 2dr Hatchback
I bought this car for two hundred dollars from a bud since he was going to junk it becuse his radiator went out and this car looks brand new so i bought it before he could junk it. I've only got like 345 dollars in this thing and i got people asking to but it anywhere from $300-$1200. i wouldn't sell it i absolutely love driving this car. I'm bout to repaint it blue chrome! but if you … could find one to fix up and drive or to sell i would go for it in a minute. this car is amazing and worth every penny..
Good Car for the money

1990 Geo Storm 2+2 2dr Hatchback
My grandmother gave me my Storm. She
bought it brand new in 1990. She loved
it. It never gave them any serious
trouble, got good gas mileage, and had
cheap insurance. The only reason she
gave it to me is because she is
handicapped and cannot get out of the
house by herself. She needeed a bigger
vehicle. Anyways, I think that the
Storm is a good first car for a …
teenager. It has good styling,
especially considering its age, it has
good fuel economy and cheap insurance.
And an airbag, which many cars this old
don't have. It could use another speed
in the base models auto, but other than
that no big design prob. Overall, a
good , reliable car for not much money.
Best car I ever owned

1990 Geo Storm 2+2 2dr Hatchback
I bought this car in New Jersey when I sold my 1978 Mercedes for 5 times what I paid for it in California. I couldn't say no! Then I needed a car to drive back to California because I needed to pick up my dog in Texas. I had a 560 SEC Mercedes in storage and was going to give the Geo to my son. After driving it to California I loved the car! I have been driving it since I bought it. Put … almost 100 thousand miles in about 5 years and only put brakes and tires on it!
