What things have gone wrong with the car?

Since I bought the car two years ago, nothing has gone wrong with it.

General comments?

For being only a four-banger, it has a lot of get-up-and-go. And I love the way it hugs the road.

I agree with you. In Asia it is called Toyota Cynos 1.8L.

I bought a 1996 Toyota Paseo with 47k on it and the damn thing blew its engine. They say I blew three out of four rod bearings. I always changed my oil and I loved my car.

My biggest problem now is I can't find a replacement motor. I know they kept making them until 2000 in Japan, but I don't know if it's legal to get what they call Japan spec and if it wasn't legal, would it still pass emmisions?

Hey there paseo drivers. I bought mine (96 model) almost 3 years ago, no problems at all. Added after market exhaust It roars and it goes. For sure would recommend this car to anybody. I bought it with 140,000 K its now at 230,000 k and still going strong!And I like to push my car to its limits to. Doesn't do all that well in snow or rain, but like I said I know my cars limitation so in that case just drive slow and careful!

Marco.
