1989 Geo Prizm LSi review from North America
"Wonderful"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I don't know that much that has went wrong with the car, the things that have happened have been so far spread out that its hard to remember. Recently last month I had to replace the water pump. I think a few years ago I had to replace the cv axles. Several alternators have went out since I got the car, but its very easy to replace I can do it myself.
General comments?
This car runs the same way it did the day I bought it, it has truly been the best car I have ever had. The paints a little faded, some of the interior pieces have broke off long ago, but the a/c is still ice cold and the car runs great, it has never failed to crank for me. The little car has lots of spunk it picks up speed really quickly, I love to drive my car on the highway cause I can go 75-80mph easily.
