1981 Pontiac Parisienne Base review from North America
"A comfortable and luxurious car that that is well worth the extra cost in up-keep"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Besides the regular...
Heater core replaced.
The cruise control transducer went at 165000.
The air conditioning has been charged several times over the years.
General comments?
The interior is very luxurious and comfortable.
Interior is also very durable and not prone to stains.
The car is very poor on tight turns in parking lots.
The car is very quite, especially on the highway, you never tire of driving it.
This car definitely gets lots of looks, especially since it used to be my grandmothers.
