Automatic Tranny
 
How do the autos hold up in the first gen? I am looking for a 7 for my g/f and she does not want a 5 spd:eek: :confused:

My aunt had a '85 4spd auto. The tranny lasted 130,000 miles then required a $3,000 rebuild:eek: (I told her not to do it!) She then drove it to 198,000 miles with no other problems, then it was sold.
