Even says "Corsica" on the trunklid! And the doors, and the title and the dash..
Unless they did it to get more hits? But I don't see the point as they are gonna see it's a Corsica, and not a Caprice and just hit back.

Wonder if it's a 2.2L or if it's older 2.0 she'd be a good commuter car judging by the older style emblems I'm guessing 91-93? Maybe can't rememeber when they went to the decal letters well whatever the year she's a nice little car low miles and in a salt free state so she's probably in nice shape underneath, needs a good buff though

Just wiki'd it and from what I understand the 2.0 was dropped after 89. Is Baltimore really salt free?
Go for it, can't go too wrong with $800 (although it is, bleh, a Corsica)
Have fun convising the guy it's not a Caprice, lmao

How do you know it's not a V6? From what I can see, it appears to be a 91. There are quite a few tell-tale signs.

Good point, probably actually is a V6.

Good point, probably actually is a V6.
The V6 was more common, and in the age range of this one (91-93 style), ALL the Corsica's were LT's regardless of if it was a 4 or 6 cylinder.
The V6 would have came with fender emblems, but we can't see that area of the car in the pics.

Or a 4 banger, because like I said, they are all LT's. They just made more with the V6.

LT became base model. After 89(?) I believe.

I was still referring to the age range of this style as I mentioned earlier. Here, I will quote myself.

LT was from 90-93 (90 and 91 share the same exterior, ie black mirrors, red badges, wheels/wheel covers) minus of course the tail lights, not to mention the interior redesign. All 90 and 91 also have LT badges on the inside front doors.
So really there were 3 choices for 88-89; base, lt, and ltz. Then 90-93 was base (which was lt) and LTZ, and from 91-93 the sport handling package instead of LTZ.
Sorry Brett! I've been watching and looking at these cars since '02
