Faults:

Window crank on driver's side is slightly off track.

Water slightly leaks into the trunk during severe rain storms.

Car sometimes hesitates when accelerating, but it probably needs routine fuel system service.

No reverse lights.

Bad washer fluid system.

General Comments:

This car is reliable. I can trust this car to drive from New York to California.

I pass a lot of other cars on the freeway with my car. Some drivers don't even expect to be passed by a 19-year- old 4 cylinder engine car.

The original AM/FM radio had a bad tape player. So I replaced it with a Clarion AM/FM cassette player radio that is also CD changer compatible.

It's starts up with no problem in cold weather.

It will outlive any American brand vehicle.

Faults:

I needed a new alternator around 2 weeks after I got it for my 16th birthday.

General Comments:

I love this car. It runs well, and despite its age, it still goes like a little rocket. I am learning to drive on it, and I couldn't have been given a better car. The handling is a little bit dodgy in the rain.

Faults:

Nothing so far.

General Comments:

The motor has a loud knock to it, but has done that since I brought it so who cares.

The twin cam side of things makes it rev up like an angry drunk.

Very cheap to run so more money for beer.

Faults:

The few things that have gone wrong with this car are very typical of them because of their age: alternator, heater blower motor, water pump, shocks and struts, valve cover gasket, carb adjustment, timing belt, rotor cap and wires, just mainly wear items, and of course the a/c doesn't work! That's about it, though...

General Comments:

I had one of these when they were new, and when I saw this for sale, I just went and paid the guy! It had been sitting under a tree for years, but even yet it has never left me stranded. I drive it about 30 miles to work every day, with trips across the state whenever I want to go. Sometimes it seems kinda slow, but just not as slow as everyone else! It handles great, gets a lot of comments (I repainted it mr2 signal yellow), and is very economical. Maybe other people have more luxurious vehicles, but there's no way they have more fun driving than I do. If I see another one, I'm getting it too so I have a spare, just in case!
