General Comments:

This vehicle handles surprisingly well. I am not at all a fan of front-wheel drive vehicles, however this car does quite well.

Very sporty, timeless look. The interior and exterior were very ahead of their time, and still have a relatively "modern" appearance.

Aside from very minor repairs, the vehicle has been extremely reliable. Throughout the duration of ownership, this vehicle has been driven hard in order to fully appreciate the performance. The vehicle has always taken it in its stride. The engine, transmission and clutch are all original at 148,000+ miles.

Nothing has gone wrong with my car! The engine runs and looks like new!

General Comments:

This purchase is probably one of the best I have made! It's a fun car to mod and just stock it's fast, sexy and reliable! Also there aren't a lot of them, so when you are driving it will turn a lot of heads!

When I bought the car it needed new tires and an oil change, the basic things cars need over time. At around 100,000 miles, the transmission died and had to be re-built.

I am 17 and I bought myself the SL model, and I love it! I bought it for the looks and I use it for a summer car. The 3000GT's are one of the nicest looking import cars made. Yeah, the new transmission was expensive, but worth every penny. I like the handling, the steering is very tight and accurate. Acceleration is quick. The only thing I think should have been improved was the weight. The 3000GT's are a very heavy car, thus making it difficult for the SL to live up to its 222 stock HP. These cars make great tuners and show cars. I do not advise anyone to drive these in the winter, they are horrible. I bought mine out of state in February '07 and I will simply say they are NOT a winter car. I bought mine stock and it has since turned into a fair chunk of my paycheck, buying upgrades.

Nothing has gone wrong with the car, but the caps on the valves will heat up about every 60k miles and is a 1000 dollar repair job, but besides that and the fan belt heating this engine is excelent.

I'm 17 years old and this is a great project car for any kid and any adult with the cash to up it. Very solid very good acceleration. A must buy 9/10.

Faults:

Drivers side CV joint, and exhaust at 100,000 miles normal wear and tear for a car with a hundred thousand miles on it.

This car is amazing it's a cheap car to buy, and you will never get sick of it. I will sit at home and try to find reasons to drive my car some where. Its pretty fast for a naturally aspirated car and it handles Great. after a hour or so of driving your back will start to hurt the seats aren’t that comfortable. and don’t plan on having any one in the back seats. I sometimes forget that I have back seats. and you can't fit anything in the trunk.

Faults:

The car has needed nothing more than an oil change and new front tires since I bought it at the beginning of the summer.

General Comments:

I'm only 16 years old. I feel downright privileged to own a 3000gt, it's truly a dream come true. It has 222 engine horsepower, EXTREMELY sleek lines and gets the undivided attention of every other driver on the road. To tell you the truth, I'd take my 3000gt over a faster (soon to be slower) '99 Mustang GT any day.
