1995 Geo Metro LSI review from North America
"I love this car, after all, come on, who drives a tricked out Metro?"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Other than routine maintenance the car has never had any problems.
General comments?
I bought an Acura TL 2.3L engine and swapped it with the old one.
I've done minor weight reduction, like taking the back seat outs.
Street slicks on the front, 16's on the rear.
I put a body kit that was custom fitted from a Honda Civic Sniper kit.
The car is insanely fast, running 10's in the quarter mile, and reaching a speed of 140 MPH.
I got it Dyno'd at 230 HP to the wheels, and a 0-60 time of 4 seconds flat.
