1989 Ford Mustang LX review from North America
"Not A Monster On The Track"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the full exhaust system. There was cracks in the pipe six inches long in places.
Water pump died on the side of the highway, while I was fixing the Timing Belt that broke!
General comments?
This car is the sedan model, not the hatchback.
Accelerates like a turtle!
Top Speed not bad for a 2.3L, but a huge step down from my previous car 1984 5.0L mustang GT.
A very comfortable car to drive lots of room. Rides like a big car without the boat size.
Can't really complain only paid $400.00 for it and gets me from point A to point B.
