The only thing I can say that my amazing 1994 Sunbird has had a problem with is the sway bars. Those things keep breaking and I don't know why. I don't think my driving is crazy enough for them to break... Other than the sway bars I would re-buy this car over and over, it's freaking amazing!!! It can get up and go for sure, I love it!

This car can go VROOM! It gets up and goes when I need it to, and the handling on it is second to none. I love it and never wanna give it up.. though I know I will eventually move up to a nicer BMW!

Within the first year I had my clutch, clutch master cylinder, and heater core go.

I did the clutch myself for less than $150, and the other stuff ran about five hundred. Not too bad... til the clutch went again. Probably due to some shoddy work done by myself (first time ever working on transmission myself).

I don't like the way the panels seem to want to just fall apart like a puzzle, like the plastic panels below the steering wheel.

The unlock buttons just failed me, as did the rear window defrosters.

The suspension in front and back is also shot. But the car has 230,000 miles on it, and I don't see it stopping anytime soon with the way I drive and take care of it.

Everyone seems to think that my Sunbird is the most comfortable car to sit in.

I drove this car to and from North Dakota and New York a few times without even once worrying if it would make it. The MPG is awesome.

Almost nothing.

Bought this car new in 1994 and still driving it. While it's in pretty rough shape cosmetically, it's given us 15 years of reliable service with only sporadic problems, all of which fall under general maintenance. It's now very dated, was always too small and lots of other small issues. But we have since purchased a 2001 Pontiac Montana which is a LEMON and we love the Sunbird more every time we take the Montana (almost daily) in for repairs. Won't buy another Pontiac - see Montana comments - but love the Sunbird.

Faults:

I have had no problems whatsoever with this vehicle.

General Comments:

I would have to say that this is going to be a great first car. It handles very nicely and has pretty good pickup on it when you mash the gas.

Comfy seats. ICE COLD A/C.

And the best part is it had 22,000 actual miles on the purchase date a little over 2 months ago! A little old lady had it, and drove it to the beauty shop, the grocery store and church, and that's all!!

I paid 2500.00 for the car, and to me it was worth it for the amount of miles. But all I can say is I will keep this car for a long time, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
