Some stylistic and trim changes greeted the 1989 Pontiac 6000. Its performance, affordability, and roomy interior were all big selling points and made it a much-loved car among its loyal owners. The 1989 6000 came in three trims -- the base LE, the sportier-looking SE, and the high-performance STE. The original base model was dropped for 1989, as was the STE AWD, now that AWD was standard on the STE. The other big change was that the coupe was no longer offered. The 1989 6000 came as either a sedan or a wagon.
The STE was the top of the line. It featured a new 3.1-liter, 140-hp V6 and came standard with ABS brakes, a digital dash display, and power adjustable seats. A 3-speed auto tran came standard on all 6000s. The 5-speed manual option was no longer available. The LE was standard with the 2.5-liter, 98-hp I4, and the SE sported the 2.8-liter, 125-hp V6. In 1989, all-wheel drive was optional on the SE. As for appearance, the 1989 6000 got a few tweaks mostly to its rear window.
Owners comment on the peppiness of the 1989 6000 engine, especially the STE, which is fast and fun to drive on the highway. Acceleration is responsive and cruising speed is relaxed and smooth. Drivers say the 6000 is great in the snow and also starting up in the winter. It is durable and dependable, and the inside is very comfortable for five, even on long trips. Complaints include a lack of cupholders in the STE and standard ABS on other trims. Turning ratio is wide, and rust tends to develop on the bottom of doors. Drivers also wish the 1989 6000 didn't look so bland and boxy. Because the STE AWD was so rare, parts are hard to find nowadays.
3.8 Overall rating
(4 reviews)This was my first family car. It was the STE version(kinda rare). Not as much room as you would expect from a 4 door sedan. Alot of cool features on this STE version. Stereo controls on the wheel (way before its time!), airbags in back, they eventually leaked and could not find replacement. all digital dash(again, ahead of its time!) Eventually sold it for more than I paid for it. SWEET! All around decent car.Had venerable 3.1 motor, TH 250 trans setup. Not a great car, but not bad. Reliable.
my car is nothing special. it does 0-60 in 16.75 seconds, i tested it again last night. the braking isn't horrid, could be better. the handling is a little loose. it needs the driver window fixed, it came off of a track, just gotta get a new track and put it in. it's gray and it's not a sporty looking car. it's a good vehicle to drive around town but isn't the best to take on long trips. it gets about 20 mpg in town and about 30 highway. it's not a bad car to drive, it's fun sometimes but if you're loking for speedy and fast, look else where, even though i have gotten it up to a buck 10.
really reliable roummy and comfy
Stylish for its time
