1976 AMC Gremlin Custom review from North America
"Excellent, a fun car to drive."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. Very reliable.
General comments?
This car is still a great American alternative for those of us who just don't feel right about driving foreign cars. At 30 MPG and 400+ mile range on a tank of gas, why would you turn your back on the good old USA? Fun to drive. Quick response. And now with a huge amount of nostalgic appeal. A true modern classic. Get one if you can. You will be glad you did.
