1996 Chevrolet Corsica review from North America
"A family hauler... more like a personal rocket!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not too much, I only do routine maintenance to my cars, nothing to special. I had to replace a front strut when I hit a pothole that was disguised by being full of water and looked smooth with the road's surface. My paint is starting to peel off around the wheel wells, just a little.
General comments?
This is a very responsive and fun to drive family sedan, but you may want it as your everyday sports car. I t handles beautifully (with the right tires) It looks great (with the aluminum wheels) and the comfort is out of this world. I could live in this car and never get tired of it. All the controls are placed perfectly within the drivers reach. They art attractive to look at and very easy to use. The stereo sound great and the CD player has never skipped. I enjoy the automatic headlights on feature and feel very safe with the anti lock brakes and dual air bags.
As an added bonus the car just won't burn gas, right now I'm still getting about 40mpg. that even better than when it was new.
I drive my cars hard at times, but this one has stood out from the pack.
Power, room, comfort, reliability, safety, economy... anything else you could want?
