1986 Pontiac 6000 STE review from North America
"Poor man's BMW"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced MAF Sensor at 103,877 miles.
New brake pads and turned rotors on all 4 wheels.
Needed a new fuel pump at 133,864 miles.
Replaced the power antenna at 145,000 miles.

General comments?
This car, in 1986, had many features that are just now offered on some cars.
The body/paint, interior, engine and transmission are still like new. I purchased the car new in 1986 and plan to keep it for the rest of my life!
