1990 Geo Storm Base review from North America
"Fun car, expensive parts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought the car for $1500 in June of 2000.
In October/November, the ignition module and crank sensor went out.
In December, the ignition coil went out.
I have spent $1400 to repair the car. Also, the glove compartment lock spring is broken.
General comments?
I like the performance, styling, and comfort of this car. However, replacing parts is not cheap since it was only made for 4 years. I think it would do Chevrolet some good to redesign this car and remake it with the Cavalier's 2.4L Z24 4-cylinder engine. A definite competitor to the sporty Honda Civic and Toyota Celica.
