1991 Chevrolet Caprice Classic review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
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.
General comments?
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.
