1992 Ford Tempo GLS - Motoring TV Classics

Hunk o junk

Ford was not very smart at being so late to put the 3.0 V6 in it. Should have been an option from the start.

I will like to bay a ford TENPLE

Wheels and Seats off 88 Escort GT... Wish I had one

If the GLS could have had the SHO 3.0 . . wow!

V6 with 140hp was good back in the day 😱

The 4 cylinder automatic version was dangerously slow for interstate highway travel.

Chevy cavalier are shit

I have a 93 tempo v6 best I have ever had

it's 2022 and I am still driving my 1992 V6 Tempo - 4 door. Though it isn't the lap of luxury, I'm satisfied

"they make life unnecessarily difficult." Keyboard player: fuckin' JAMMING

I had a 1992 Ford Tempo. I liked the looks of the car, but it had the 4 cyl. engine. I needed a road map to pass anyone and on long hills I was down to 50 mph. This car is what made me develop a hatred for 4 cyl. engines. It only got 20 mpg too. I would have loved that car if only it would have had more power.

So the Chevrolet cavalier competed with the Ford escort not the Ford tempo Bo. I think his dumb-ass meant to say the Chevrolet Corsica woods what's the actual direct competition. At least on the rental car lots

I love cars of '90s those reviews are classic for me personally!!!

GLS V6- Tempo Really Si' RIMS With system. You will step your game way. Up. LOVE ALWAYS. GREAT ON GAS.

Long time since I’ve seen one of these in the wild. These were not durable machines, certainly not compared to the roach-like Cavalier.

Remember when these came out in the 80s with the inline 5? Advertised as the power of a 6 with economy of a 4, but the reality was the opposite.

Interesting

They don't make those cars anymore

I drove a 92 Topaz through high school. Just as you describe the dash I hated looking at it. Had repair bills to fix the AC totaling $5,000 and it still didn’t work. The passive seatbelts sucked too. 2.3L auto was awful but it hauled me around trouble free for years.

Cool 😀

Rather a z24 or sunbird turbo

I thought this car competed against the Chevrolet Corsica and Beretta.

what an astounding POS car that was. shiver horrible memories from that thing.

Another clean late 80s, early 90s yank car. There really was some attractive clean designs back then from a ton of makers. Now all we have are vile blob CUVS.
