1996 Ford Taurus GL review from North America
"It's a money pit with no end in sight!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The engine blew a couple months after owning this beautiful pile... and it cost $1700 to get a newer engine put in.. and lets see it just doesn't take off well, seems to sag in the back.. which is UGLY; I hate the roundness of it, but it was a huge step up from a 89 Buick Regal with power nothing...
General comments?
It's actually an OK car; I would never buy one again because I love foreign cars, but yeah it's OK.. ugly style though!
