I had to replace the distributor at around 159,000 miles.
There was a minor oil leak below one of the spark plugs, I easily repaired that.
Something was wrong with the radiator, the car would over heat. I could not fix it so it cost me $239 to have a mechanic fix it.
I love my car.
Despite those problems this car is very reliable. The reason those things happened was because the guy that had it before me neglected the car.
Its not a fast car... but if your like me, and install some after market parts, it's a rocket!
Very comfortable interior, I'm 6'1 and I
fit good in it.
Great Gas mileage, even with the Air intake kit I installed, about 26 mpg on the streets or on a full tank of gas I usually get about 248 miles before I have to refuel.
If your just out of High school and want an older, inexpensive car you can modify, I recommend this one.
Just don't get the 626 LX automatic... I heard those suck.
I disagree with the comment auto's are problems, yes I have only had my car for 3 months, I know the lady whom owned this car since it was originally bought and she has not had any hassles. the car is now at 174000kms and still going strong - I wish people wouldn't knock autos!!!
