1993 Pontiac Sunbird LE review from North America
"Great college student car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It always idled rather hard.
It had the struts replaced.
The alternator died twice and had to be replaced.
I had to have the belts replaced in it.
I had to replace the speakers on the dash because the sun dried them out.
The dash started to come away from above the radio.
Also, the odometer stopped at 100,000, so it is an estimate that it was at 150,000, though I really think it was around that.
General comments?
I loved this car. Someone pulled out in front of me two weeks ago and totaled it, but I am fine. My little Sunny took care of me.
It was not a super quick car, nor was it super slow, but I really liked the way it handled.
Everything inside it was easy to access.
I would recommend this car to others, and I miss mine.
It was still going fine when the wreck happened.
