Radiator leaked at about 75,000 miles, had to be replaced.
Water pump and coolant reservoir gaskets had to be replaced at 83,000 miles.
Alternator replaced at about 80,000 miles.
Being a 2.0L I4 mated to a 3spd automatic transmission, you'd think this car would be very slow, but this is far from the truth, my little Sunbird zips around with pretty good acceleration for a four cylinder.
Stock stereo system was a little odd when replacing with a DIN sized deck, but with some creativity it worked out very nicely.
Currently my Sunbird is at a little over 83,000 miles and I hope she last for quite a bit longer.
These cars can be had at a very reasonable price if you look around. Mine was purchased for $2000.
My little Sunbird has a 2.0l in it 5 speed and its the fastest car on the road around my house. It is a sweet car itll go around 135 mph. I haven't lost a race yet in it. But I've also heard of parts goin wrong that should not. My friend has one that blew up after 2 weeks.
I'm afraid to take my 1993 Sunbird over 70mph, in fear that it will blow up. I wouldn't be surprised if it did, it has once. how does your car get up to 135 mph? the speedometer only goes up to 100 on my car.
