1989 Pontiac Bonneville LE review from North America

I have replaced the following:

Alternator.

Starter.

Air conditioner compressor and flywheel.

Front wheel passenger side ball joint.

Transmission pan gasket.

Fuel pump - 3 times.

Fuel lines and filter - completely rusted.

Power antennae.

Ventilation fan.

Numerous headlights.

Spark plugs and wires (serious arcing problem).

I have repaired the following:

Rust, rust, and more rust.

A rusted out stress crack on the A (windshield) pillar.

Rear driver door did not want to unlock or open.

I had to weld several parts of the exhaust system back together.

I still need to fix these items:

Power windows are slow.

Transmission makes noises and does not always shift on time.

Electrical noise coming over radio.

When the car has nothing wrong with it - it is real smooth and powerful. However, it is rare that the car does not have a problem with it. The car is treated very well, or it has been since I have owned it. I am not sure about the last owner.

The steering is responsive and so is the throttle.

The handling is rather lacklustre as would be expected from a car this size. It seems to dip a lot in corners.

The interior is great, hardly any wear marks, and all materials seem to be in their original condition.
