1985 Chevrolet Sprint review from North America
"I should have bought one in 1985!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
I bought this little sweetheart when the price of gas went through the roof. Now the price of gas has dropped a lot and I feel like I can drive for free. I am getting between 40 and 48 miles per gallon, depending upon how I drive. My one-way commute is 32 miles on the hilly, curvy and beautiful northern Oregon coast. I feel if I were on the freeway, 50 mpg would be easy to achieve. This car is a keeper! My 11 year old son has named the car "Rufus the Dominator", and the name fits, as the car has a lot of heart.
