Faults:

Well the transmission went after 200,175 miles on its original engine.

The sensors kept acting up. So whenever I push the brake pedal the Driver Info Center brake light would make 5 beeping noises. Which can become very irritating.

General Comments:

This is a beautiful collectors car. You would never expect a car of that year to have so many features. I always get comments on the car, especially the body style. At night it looks like an airplane with all its digitality. What I really like is the control buttons on the steering wheel.

Faults:

Since I have owned this vehicle I have had to replace the rack & pinion steering mechanism, an alternator, and it appears that a water pump may be next in line.

The front passenger window is often problematic, and that same door will no longer open (these things are understandable considering the mileage on the vehicle).

The biggest problem that I have now is a battery drain, causing me to have to charge my battery every few days or so.

General Comments:

Overall, I like this car a lot and only wish that it didn't sit so low.

Faults:

The computer causes the oil light to stay on most of the time, even though it's fine.

The gas warning light goes on and turns off prematurely (starting at about 1/2 tank.. also because of the computer).

Plan to get the exhaust system replaced even though it's not a problem at the moment.

The oil gasket leaks an insignificant amount, not enough to be a problem.

I was aware of all these problems (except for the gas light thing) before I purchased the car.

My windshield leaks some and has resulted in the steering wheel control buttons not operating at all times, but that's my fault.

General Comments:

The car is model year 1990 but was manufactured in 1989. This is a great car and has not let me down once.

Faults:

I just recently had the engine and transmission rebuilt. I figured after 200k miles, it could use it. The only other things I have done to it are replace the windshield, struts, mass airflow sensor, and the brake master cylinder. All very easy and inexpensive repairs.

General Comments:

This has been the best car I have ever owned. It's not the newest, or the oldest, but definitely the best. When this one lays its weary head to rest, I will buy a new one.

Faults:

In addition to normal wear and tear, have changed ECM, alternatior, and rear suspension once.

General Comments:

Very comfortable car with an excellent pickup and sporty body. Engine has never been overhauled even after 10 years.

Faults:

At 160K miles have gone through:

1 starter.

1 timing belt.

4 electronic coil modules (3 replaced under warranty).

When this goes out the car will not to start in cold damp weather.

Normal brake repair/maintenance.

General Comments:

This car has been driven into the ground and still continues to run. Overall a good car that is responsive. Seems that this year has problems with starters/coil modules. Would buy another if the prices of the new models weren't so obscene.

Faults:

Nothing, until it was crushed mercilessly in 1993 by two idiot teenagers in a 1974 Mustang.

General Comments:

One of the best cars I've ever driven. A great combination of price, reliability, speed, and clean style. Look for one in good shape, you will be pleased with your purchase. The SSEi trimline just adds more fun to an already good car.
