Got the car for free but it needed some work - about 450 dollars worth. Drove the car for a few years and the only problem was a bad battery cable and the exhaust rotted and fell off.

Pros — Reliable, Safe, Lots of room, Comfortable, lots of fun, surprising gas mileage from the V8
Cons — RUST! These tend to rust in typical GM places as well as the frame behind the rear wheels. Also, it was front wheel drive which made transmission work expensive.
