Hola;
I flipped my 1992 SC2 on the Northway with 197 K and a lot of life left in her. (I was driving too fast, and it was snowing.)
My 1999 SC2 was totalled the 4th time she got hit.
rear-ended on I 84 while stopped in bumper to bumper traffic
left front corner, I was stopped at a stop sign
left front corner, another car ran a light, bounced off a 3rd car in the intersection and into me
rear-ended on a city street, the van that hit me ran red light to do so
My 2005 ION has 130K and is running strong.
Problems? The usual. The '92 burned oil and broke engine mounts. Nothing remarkable with the '99. The 2005 has had several ignition switches. One led to the battery running down. The subsequent jump starts burned out fuses and killed a battery or two.
A badge I would remain loyal to if GM had kept its hands off and it was still around. 3 good cars in 20+ years. Stop-n-go, long distance drives, 1000 mile drives pretty much non-stop several times, dozens of 800+ mile trips with her loaded to the gills, comfortable to sleep in, even in the winter.
