1991 Plymouth Acclaim review from North America
"Amazing car - I could not have imagined a car being any better"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The original paint job on this car is poor and the colour is uneven. It is currently in the process of peeling from the roof and truck of car in large areas.
Has a tin-like noise with heavy acceleration.
Uncomfortable driver and passenger seats.
Have had to replace a few standard items: brakes, gas tank, rear bearings, gas and brake lines - nothing really out of the ordinary.
General comments?
Excellent value for money.
Very reliable - has never needed to be towed or any major repair.
Great student/ small family car.
Decent gas mileage and overall very low cost of ownership.
Smooth highway driving, quite manageable in the city as well.
