1986 Pontiac 6000 STE review from North America
"Outstanding sports sedan that when dressed up can compete with the best!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Over the many years I have had the vehicle, naturally I have experienced the need to replace numerous components. However, I note that common among those which have failed prematurely are the various (read virtually all) electrical accessories & sensors.
General comments?
I LOVE THIS CAR!!! I confess that between my poor wife and two children that are now driving we own five vehicles. They are:
1. My original 1986 6000 STE
2. Another 1986 6000 STE (for rebuild)
3. Another 1986 6000 STE (My wife's)
4. Another 1986 6000 STE (Parts car)
5. 1988 Pontiac 6000 Wagon
6. 1992 Sunbird SE
