1992 Geo Prizm LSi review from North America
"I got my monies worth AND some with this car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Normal wear and tear after 15 years...
Steering wheel finally fading - need a cover.
Radiator replaced after 13 years.
Timing belt finally gave after 15 years.
Muffler/exhaust replaced after 10 years.
Air vents eventually breaking away (overuse of Armor All).
General comments?
I truly love my car!
After 15 years, I am finally looking to buy another car, but I'm keeping the Prizm for old time sakes.
I upgraded the tires on my car during the first years, so handling has always been great.
Acceleration has been great for this 4 cylinder ride.
My air conditioner and heater have always worked very well and very quick.
The inside of my car still looks like it did 10+ years ago (I kept it clean and smoke-free) and still transports 5+ at any given time.
Trunk space was always adequate.
