1999 Daewoo Lanos LX review from North America
"A really fun car to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Road noise is quite high.
General comments?
A really fun car to drive. The car is geared properly for once in that down shifting to d3 on the automatic transmission will not shift out. The RPM keep on coming with more power for passing.
The small width allows one to use the whole lane straightening out curves. It reminds me of a midget.
The car is really solid on the road. I hit the binders at nearly one hundred MPH when I saw a policeman in a speed trap, not a shimmy or a shake. I hope I don't get too many tickets driving this thing.
No lack of power in this car.
