1992 Toyota Tercel Base review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Replaced front exhaust pipe, O2 sensor, and distributor cap. This was part of normal wear/tear for a car with 90,000 miles on it. High beam lights will come on sometimes while making turns.
General comments?
Good overall car despite the fact that it was made to be an econo-box. No major problems/expenses other than normal maintenance. Tercels are very durable and will last a long time. One could easily get 150,000 miles or more by taking reasonable care. Truly one of the best cars dollar for dollar.
