The ultimate K-car luxury sedan—a car that was all about plush velour, landau roofs, and the feeling of success. It was basically a New Yorker with more chrome and a softer ride. It’s a relic of the '80s that's surprisingly comfortable and simple to maintain.
The Fifth Avenue was a front-drive, unibody sedan on the K-car platform. It had a 2.2L Turbo I4 (146 hp), a 2.6L Mitsubishi 4-cylinder (99 hp), or a 3.0L Mitsubishi V6 (in 1987-1989). Transmissions: 3-speed auto (A413) or 4-speed auto (A604). It was all about the soft ride, the plush seats, and the faux-wood trim.
The 2.2L Turbo has head-gasket issues—the early ones are prone to failure. The 2.6L Mitsubishi is a boat anchor—it’s slow and has timing chain issues. The 3.0L Mitsubishi V6 is a good engine but has timing belt issues. The A413 3-speed auto is reliable; the A604 4-speed auto is a nightmare. The Fifth Avenue is a cheap used car, but the transmission and the turbos are the weak links.
