Well, at 121000 miles the radiator cracked, cost 800$ to get fixed.
At 123000 miles the water pump went out, it was my fault tho.
At 125000 miles I had to replace a little plastic elbow tubing that went from the block to the water pump, part was only 10$ but still was a nuisance.
At 130000 miles I had to replace the power steering pressure hose, it didn't cost much just was hell getting it back in there.
Although all this has gone wrong the car has never left me stranded on the side of the road, it is a extremely reliable car (engine IS made by Suzuki), that I will love and swear by until my death, if you are thinking about getting one, you will not be disappointed it is a great car (to me).
This car is nothing short of perfect, it has been reliable, fun, and has quite possibly the most attractive American styling I have ever seen. It also has great pick up, those kids in their Honda Civics try to race me all the time, of course I always win. with 200hp and 230lbs of torque this car is a great competitor. The handling is great, there isn't much body roll to it, and it hardly leans. But mine is the California Edition so it has 5 more horses and it has sports tuned suspension which make even more fun than the GTP. The only thing the GTp has on me is more hp.
I cannot continue living thinking someone out there thinks that suzuki builds the 3.8 liter pontiac engines.?
The 3.8 is a legendary engine and is bullet proof and is made in north america by general motors. you must be thinking of ford? sho. what the f@#*?
Wake up and buy american before you are out of a job!
