The motor isn't fantastically powerful, but it works for me. I've had a 1992 caprice, and this 1991, and they are great heavy duty, reliable cars. I get 20 miles a gallon consistently. I drove this car from Ohio to California fully loaded with no problems. It's the perfect affordable full size luxury car that is still practical transportation.

Faults:

No real faults so far. Had to replace radiator valve and tires. Person before me did not take good care of it. Is in still great conditon as my first car.

I'm in love with my car. It is the finest thing I have driven. It handles like a dream, and I have 205/16s on there right now. I will be upgrading to the 255/17 in the next few weeks. The acceleration is wonderful. I blow other "sports cars" out of the water. The higher gear ratio wont let me get off the line as fast. But once it kicks into second gear, the caprice will overtake just about any little punks turbo charged civic. The gas mileage is very impressive as well. Ive gotten up to 25 gallons to the mile if I don't drive it that hard for the 3 weeks or so. Overall, I would definitely suggest this wonderful car to anyone that asks about it. Also, the interior of the red corduroy and velvet is the best.

Faults:

Um, where to begin. transmission at 114k, horn, cruise, radiator, radiator, radiator, egr valve, egr valve again, 2 converters in 9 months, failed emissions and blew the trans in the same month.

General Comments:

Loved the gas mileage... still unsure why this car could get over 20mpg/400 per tank, when most cars with V6's are only getting about the same.

Faults:

Only a new battery and and an oil change. Brake fluid has to be replaced.

Front brake shoes have been replaced and coolant hose has been replaced.

General Comments:

Very luxurious car with a good handling for such a big car. Especially here in Europe. With my height (6'3") it's still very roomy.

Fuel consumption is very good. 1 Liter to every 9 kilometers.

Modern cars often are more fuel consuming.

Nicest Caprice of all. This car is here to stay.

Faults:

- Everything OK. Had just to replace a burnt out bulb for the front headlights.

General Comments:

- Very robust, comfortable, reliable, confortable car indeed

- One small drawback: the body of the car is rather bulky, roundnosed(like having baby fat around it) with protruding parts in front and in the rear. No wonder thy nickname it the "whale"! This body idiosyncrasy made it tricky for me to park it in the second underground floor of the building: there was a only few inches clearance from the fenders to the next wall...

- Despite it's huge size, easy to drive even on narrow mountain roads in the Swiss Alps...

- Would still drive it, had I not been offered an enticing Cadillac Fleetwood 1989.
