1985 Pontiac 6000 STE review from North America
"A fine car for those looking for balance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this car back in November 2007 from someone who was wholesaling the car. I paid $650.00 for the car and since then have taken it to the local service station whereby I had them include a tune-up, oil change, new filters (including air, oil, and fuel), O2 sensor, check the compression, replace a burned out headlight and taillight.
I took the car in to have the fuel injection cleaned, using the Motor Vac system, flushed out the transmission, cooling system, and brakes.
Later, I had the steering rack replaced, the only item wrong with the car.
General comments?
What I like about the 6000 STE is it's overall balance.
Balance in regards to steering precision, braking, handling, and ride.
The interior looks new except for the falling down headliner. The seats are very comfortable, adjustable in 8 ways, manually.
