1989 Geo Spectrum review from North America
"This car accomplishes what you paid for it, it gets you reliably from A to B with good gas mileage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The CV joints went out last year.
The driver's seat wore out at 140,000.
I have the hatchback model and the fasteners that hold the plastic molding have worn out so that the hatch squeaks when driving.
General comments?
This car accomplishes what you paid for it, it gets you reliably from A to B with good gas mileage. This car has been totaled twice and it still runs like a champ.
