Things to look out for?
Wednesday, May 25, 2011 8:06 PM
Getting a 99 Sunfire SE at the end of the week. It's in rough shape, a bit of minor body damage, worn interior, bad paint, but my mechanic assures me that it is in good running order and has a solid engine for one with ~115k miles.

Knowing that every car has its own idiosyncrasies, and this being my first J-body, I'm curious what problems should I expect? Handling issues? Engine component failures? Weird blind spots? Etc.?

violence over 60 MPH.
Terrible thuds when you accidentally hit a pot hole.
Jbo members making fun of you, and generally being unsupportive. (Some, not all)
about 300 miles per tank on the 2200,


*Ponders* Thats all i can really gather at the moment.

Everything.

I'm on my 4th one and still find little quirks.
