"Poor mans Porsche"

I bought mine with 79,000 miles never did any major work , just changed oil transmission fluid spark plug coolant , cut off the muffler this car was amazing quick fun you could literally go crazy in it and it would still run like new I loved it, Poor mans rally car also easiest car to maintain and repair, you can crash it and it wont mess it up its the last of the solid cars, had actual bumpers , not cheapo plastic.

"Not Bad"

I bought this car for $500. Not bad for a 500 dollar car. It has confortable seats and you dont have to worry about getting it dirty. The only problem is that it is poorly built. The carpet in the trunk fell out about three weeks ago. It is not that nice to look at either, but no cars from 1992 are anyway. It stalls a lot, but always starts up in the morning. It gets great MPG. It is an AWD, and doesn't do that bad on the ice and snow if you put studded tires on it. Overall i would give this car a 6.5.

Perfect First Car.
Pros

Fun to drive, versatile, great value for the money

Cons

hard to find one in good shape

I bought my '94 Loyale in 2011 with 133,000 miles on it, for only $750. Aside from being a little dirty and faded, it had no real problems. Very simple styling, but once I got it all cleaned and detailed, it looked great. It was fun to drive, rode surprisingly smooth, and was very comfortable. The factory stereo wasn't the best, but I replaced the stereo and speakers for under $200. I also replaced the rear shocks and tires while I had it. The only problems I ever had were an issue with the heater, which just turned out to be a bad control panel, and an overheating problem, which was because the previous owner had propped the thermostat open. I sold it because it had a leak in one head gasket, and I didn't have the money to get it fixed. Overall I enjoyed having it, and easily got more than my money's worth.

Great little car!
Pros

Fun, Cheap, good gas millage , and no blind spot.

Cons

A bit slow.

I find it to be fun and easy to drive. Not the fastest thing but has great gas millage 28-30 is what I tend to get. A perfect around town car. I love it most though because there is no blind spot.

Rolling Awesomeness
Pros

Awesome to drive. Auto windows, locks,

Cons

none, the car is awesome for 20 years old.

I paid $800 for this car 5 years ago from my father-in-law. He bought it new in 1991. There has been no major maintenance needed. I still take this car on 1,000 mile roadtrips with no problem. This car is rolling awesomeness.
