Dependable Workhorse

I purchased my Sunbird new in 1992. This car was primarily driven to and from my place of work in heavy traffic conditions. It's fuel injected four cylinder engine coupled with a five speed manual transmission provided plenty of power and made driving fun. I replaced the altenator on two occassions and the timing belt once. I still own this vehicle after eleven years of solid service. It still gets great gas mileage and looks great.

Bought it with 16K mi in near perfect condition. Sideswiped in an accident, and it was never the same again. After a series of inept body and engine mechanics, 60K miles, and the accident, it's so-so. Body is still fine. Engine, with the proper plugs, is pretty good. Before the accident, I LOVED it!!! Except for the seats. Not too comfortable for long drives. Okay for highway driving, otherwise mileage isn't great, but it's pretty heavy. OTOH, if it weren't heavy, I'd probably be dead. My big lesson - find a GOOD mechanic. One that doesn't know what he's doing will ruin your engine.

I'VE HAD THIS CAR SINCE NEW AND HAVE ONLY HAD TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH AT 88000KMS. IT'S DROPPING A LITTLE BIT OF OIL NOW BUT THAT'S UNDERSTANDABLE SINCE IT HAS 140000KMS ON IT. IT STILL HAS THE ORIGINAL 4 BARREL EXHAUST PIPES. HANDLES WELL AND WILL STILL OUTPACE, OUTSTART MOST OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD. CAME WITH A 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANE, V6 3.1 DOHC. SPORT PACKAGE.

Does anyone know the horsepower in the '92 Pontiac Sunbird with the V6, 3.1L? I am trying to compare the new (2002) Pontiac Sunfires ecotech engine (4 cylinder, 2.2L 140 horsepower) with my Pontiac Sunbird with a V6, 3.1L Thanks a bunch!

This has been the most unreliable I have ever owned. The thing shakes, rattles and groans. Always ahs something that needs to be fixed. But, when I put the top down, all is forgiven. Ride is horrible and power is low for a V-6. Seats are uncomfortable.
