Overall:

Its A Fun Car To Have, But Dont Spend More Than A Grand On One — YACHT. yacht. this car is an absolute yacht. it managed to make less than 200 hp out of a 5L engine. On the other hand, it was incredibly comfortable and had very good brakes. Car was not especially fun to drive, but no one in their right mind would expect it to be.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Pros: It had front and rear bench seats. Whats not to love?

Cons: Horrible mileage for such a slow car
