1994 Chevrolet Prizm lsi review from North America
"Solid car that will run for years and years"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced starter.
Front tires wear out the sides faster than the middle, but with 227k miles, who can blame it?
Exhaust manifold is cracked, will need to replace it.
General comments?
Super gas mileage.
Reliable.
Interior is nice for this type of car.
This was owned by a friend of mine for many years, and I just bought it from him with very high miles. It seems to show no real issues that would prevent me from running it another 50-100k miles.
Not fast, but peppy enough to get around.
Overdrive is nice, it keeps the revs down to about 2k at 65mph.
Easy to park and maneuver,
Pretty comforatble ride for a small car.
I think I got a heck of a bargain.
