1989 Chevrolet Sprint review from North America
"Got gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Drivers side window falls off the track.
Muffler was rusted and needed repair.
General comments?
Incredibly fast for rallying.
Like driving in a tin can.
Incredible gas mileage.
Full bore off road rallying (constant shifting, between 60-150km/h) achieved 38.67km/l.
Tank filled until gas could be seen on both fills.
Gas mileage calculated over 418km off road rally trip.
I was amazed. I am going to drive it sensibly on the highway and see what kind of mileage it can actually get.
Just had to write this because if you want gas mileage..
