Faults:

The only technical problems I have had with the car was that the window cables sometimes get loose from opening and closing the doors, but that's easily fixable.

General Comments:

The car has always started every time I run it. Even in freezing temperatures.

The car is very reliable, and even looks good.

Handles very well, and can enjoy every ride.

Faults:

Computer failure when it was new (less than 500 miles)

Cracked head at 80K, due to failed radiator cooling fan and a very hot day in a Chicago traffic jam. I consider this to be my fault, as I knew it was overheating and kept going.

Other than normal maintenance items, absolutely no other problems.

General Comments:

Very Fast and Good Looking car! I always have liked it - still do.

Faults:

Replaced Clutch & Transmission, about 6 months after buying it..

Turbo is not working properly, either this is a vacuum problem or a waste-gate flow problem.

General Comments:

This has been a great car.

The only reason I'm on my second one is because some guy fiquredturning left into me was a good idea.

This a quick, and great handling car.

I plan on doing a total top and bottom rebuild on the engine, putting custom headers on, and rebuilding, or getting a new turbo.

No, I;m not crazy, but I want to show some of these guys that a domestic car can bejust as good, if not better then Civics, Preludes and such.

Faults:

Replaced exhaust system (whole system just rotted out) at 110,000km.

Replaced water pump at 145,000km.

Blew a head gasket that also cracked the aluminum cylinder head at 150,000km (found out from engine re-builder that it this wasn't the first time the head gasket had blown on this car)

General Comments:

Not a bad performer, but Turbo took a bit to kick in, relatively poor acceleration until over 60km/h.

Not the most comfortable seating, hard on back, but spacious drivers area.

Factory sunroof never leaked, never was a problem.

I would never, ever buy a turbo car again, brutally expensive to repair and not worth the performance gains.

Terribly unreliable as well, the 4 cylinder turbo in the Sunbird is infamous for it's unreliability, which, unfortunately I didn't know about before I bought the car.

I cut my losses after paying for the rebuilt head and quickly sold the car, I knew there were other problems mounting (alternator, belts, bearings, and more).

Otherwise I was quite happy with the car, it has nice lines, looks sporty, decent performance, but I should have bought the 3.1 V6 powered Sunbird GT.
