Fair warning, I have found local models and frontier models to be very bad at the specifics when it comes to cars.

Small differences like month and year model can impact oil capacity, oil weight and things like that, the details that matter quite a bit.

I found frontier models couldn't get things like what engine was in a 1994 Nissan Skyline, one of the more infamous and talked about cars on internet forums for decades, with dedicated fan databases that would have been scraped.

Questions like "what air filter do I need for my 1994 Suzuki Swift?" are hit and miss.

This seems to be trained(? or referencing) on the specific cars' owner's manual.
