"Someone's nightmare come to life"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

10 tiers in three years. Don't ask.

New brakes at 100,000, we bought it is had over 80,000 miles.

Head gasket blew at 122,000.

Interior is falling apart.

New timing belt at 122,000.

Bad gas mileage!

General comments?

The worst car I ever drove. But it lasted for longer than I expected. I can't tell you how many problems we have had, just too many to list. The one thing that sticks out about this car, is that, it is horrible in the snow! Never, I mean Never buy this car if you live up north.

We are now selling this junker for 1,000 or best offer. I just bought a 98 Isuzu, it puts this car or any other Grand Am to shame!!

Acutally, I live in montreal, BAD winters here. Performs excellently and if you KNOW how to drive you won't run into any problems (hint hint). I also like to put it in a sidespin by pulling the e-brake to show people how balanced the chassis is. once you recover by flooring it and 'pulling' around the turn, you'll know how to control it. Oh did I mention that GM owns isuzu? lol.

I live up in northern Ontario and I love mine in the snow. My only complaint is the foot operated e-brake, but once you get used to hitting it while cornering its fairly easy. I have never had a problem in the snow up here.
