General comments?
This car is fantastic! My absolute dream car. The experience of owning this classic is better than expected. It's a daily driver and what fun it is. The comments I usually receive from strangers is that this model has a "bullet proof engine." I just know that considering its age, I've had very little go wrong with it and it has never left me stranded. It's a joy to drive. Pure engine.
