"Overated and unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator, Master cylinder, Head gasket, Front and Rear brakes. Dashboard lights. Muffler and Tailpipe. Original paint faded badly.
General comments?
Fairly unreliable for a older japanese car lots of electrial and cooling system problems, even with regular oil changes and tune-ups! Paint faded and peeled badly even for a 15 year old car! Very comfortable and quick.
