Great to drive but fearful to repair I own both a 1990 and 1992 V8. Both have just over 100K. The 92 is much superior for
the following reasons: the servomatic steering is easier and smoother, the 4.2 engine
shows up how underpowered the 3.6 is for the 1990, and the ride was improved with
better springs for a less harsh ride. They are like two different cars.The bad news for both
is that they really are gas guzzlers. It seems impossible to get over 20mpg for straight
highway driving and around times is scary. Ironically the 92 became a headache after
having a routine timing belt service that has resulted in a clattering noise that no one
seems able to solve even after redoing the job twice, including the dealership taking a stab
at it; all the parts are new. Extremely disappointing because no one seems able to figure it
out. The 1990, though less satisfying to drive, hasn't given me a bit of trouble in the six
months I've had it. If anyone has insight into the rattling noise, let me know, but it's not
the obvious suggestions.
