1981 Pontiac Parisienne review from North America
"The Pontiac Parisienne has to be one of the best cars Pontiac has ever made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Issues are to be expected with a car that is 26 years old, but none have been major. Besides regular maintenance, I've replaced the fuel pump, ball joints, and heater core.
My engine has been switched out so I am doing work on a 350 Chevy motor. (Probably a 1980 Chevy or Olds Motor). Still I have a good car!
General comments?
I love my Parisienne! For the most part the car is reliable. It helps that I am mechanically inclined. I am only stranded if I can't work it out.
The ride is like a dream, especially on the highway.
I love my boat! I get offers to sell all the time. I just can't let it go.
