SINCE NEW

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.

My Father in Law bought this car used in '92 and had NO TROUBLE at ALL with it. I inherited it with 100,000 miles and have put an additional 36,000 on it. It sat for about a year before I got it and I replaced the timing belt, alternator and the rear axle. (was sagging, we figure it was fatigue from sitting so long. Was only $500 including labor) Has been a great little car, great on gas and has never failed me ... use it to drive 300 mile round trip once a week and around town. Rides a little rough and suspect it could use shocks but at 136,000 miles it's un

Lots of problems

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.

If you're looking for a car to have fun with the 'Bird is it. Shares many parts with the Cavalier, and you can find parts for them anywhere! Everything's straightforward and easy to work on

Poor workmanship

Car started having problems 3 months after purchase. It had 28,000 miles on it when bought and by 40,000 miles it needed a new tranny and had a blown head gasket. The interior was poorly designed as it was constantly coming apart. Driving was fair at best with a 2.0 4 cyl engine that had no power and it had very uncomfortable seats.
