1992 Toyota Paseo 4 Cylinder

Summary:

Very economic and a good deal

Faults:

Nothing major.

Drivers side door can't lock, and if it is accidentally locked, you can't get in.

General Comments:

This car is fast, comfortable, sporty, etc. Its everything I ever wanted in a car, and its very affordable. It has an amazing 230,000 miles on it and it still runs like its new!! I've heard on another Toyota (no idea what model) that came into a body shop, and it had a MILLION miles on it. So this car will run forever.

Every time the mechanic looks at it, he never finds anything major.

1992 Toyota Paseo 1.5

Summary:

Nice reliable, but sharp looking commuter car

Faults:

Nothing really major. My Water pump just recently went bad. And I had to have the springs, motor mounts, and left axle replaced. The car is low to the ground so the pot hole filled streets of New York can make for a rough ride in a Paseo.

General Comments:

This is a great car. It requires little maintenance and is very reliable. Even when this car has had problems its never left me stranded anywhere. The engine performs great even over 100k miles and the transmission still shifts smoothly. The car gives you a sports car look and feel without actually being one. I only wish the back seat were a little larger (a full size adult could not sit back there) and that the engine had a little more horsepower.

I have had my Toyota Paseo for 17 years. Love this car, never had any problems whatsoever.

Recently I have had to replace a worn part. Most recently, yesterday, the repair man says I need work done on the transmission, not sure what, there is some vibration/wobbling in the steering wheel, he balanced the tires etc., seems better, however he seems to think that when up on the lift and examining the axles etc., there seems to be too much moving around of certain parts that go to the transmission... price to fix... between $1,500 and $2,500 + he does not do transmissions so he recommended a reliable one to me... what to do?

Any suggestions please?...LLT.

Faults:

I have noting go wrong with my car yet and hope noting to go wrong with it.

The motor is running fine. The only thing wrong about the car is the back seat its to small for a adult.

General Comments:

This car is good for its value. The car is reliable and powerful for two person car. I mean that it kicks ass. I have gone against Rx-7 in the free way and kick the Rx-7 butt.

Obviously you were racing alone.

1992 Toyota Paseo

Summary:

A great car that I would recommend to anyone young.

Faults:

The Cruise Control has gone out.

The air conditioner needed complete replacement.

I had transmission problem due to a human fault-not the manufacturer. Some one had left the cap off the transmission fuel, causing replacement of the entire transmission. This certainly didn't reflect the manufacturer.

General Comments:

The car is extremely reliable. It wasn't made for luxury, but great for economical use.

These vehicles are very tiny and not much room.

Great on gas.

You can park anywhere.

The car has good handling and picks up quickly.

It has a lot of power and I would recommend it for anyone who has experience driving. Because it is very fast and if you like speed and know how to drive this is the car for you.
