1992 Pontiac Sunbird LE review from North America

"Cheap, fun, project car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

The first thing to go was the head gasket at 150,000 miles.

The next thing to go was the alternator. (Because of sound system). 165,000.

The next and most costly was the motor itself, 160,000 miles.

After the new motor there wasn't any problems for 5 months then the starter went.

After replacing that, there haven't been any problems.

General comments?

This car hasn't been that great as far as parts, but it has proved itself in the long run.

After replacing the motor, I knew that there were going to be other problems because you can't just replace just one part of an engine right?

The car by itself doesn't look all that great plain, but after tinting the windows, installing a premium sound system, an under-body kit, Zenon headlights, fog lights, adding a windsheild banner, and custom painting the interior, the car looks awesome.

This is a good car if you want a cheap "pimped out" look. The cosmetics for this car are really cheap and very easy to put on yourself.

Overall the car gets me where I have to go and throws a little style out there.

Just remember, the smallest thing you do to this car will make it stand out pretty well.
