1989 Eagle Premier LX review from North America
"Giugiaro, you're a wierd one"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The back brakes sprung a leak and so my for a while, I was only operating on my front brakes, which badly warped them because of the friction. I got back brakes fixed, but now the thing brakes pretty rough..., you know? also, I think the heater core is leaking, because if I don't have the heat on the front window fogs up badly. but if I do have the heat on, all of the other windows fog up badly, so what's more important?
General comments?
It runs really well. it had sat for eight 1998 and it started right up when I bought it in '05. this car has really grown on me, like a fungus. it's also extremely slow to pick up, but when I hit 25, that's when the horse power kicks in. but I love the design of this car, and it's comfortable.
