Great car, gets great gas mileage. My motor wasn't tuned right I guess, it didn't have the greatest acceleration, but I guess most others have great pick up. Couldn't keep mine around long enough to get it tuned. Keep out of tall grass (that is how I lost mine) the catalytic converter caught the grass on fire and then melted a fuel line and made car go bye bye. I would have kept the car if it hadn't happend.
I put a ton of miles on this car when I was in high school and college before giving it to my younger brother with 93,000 on it. I enjoyed it, but it wasn't the roomiest car on the planet. I'm convinced the motivation for this car was someone's snap-together model in the early 80s. It was 75 percent plastic. One rear shock went out after about 25,000, the other four years later.
Once I handed it over, the CV joints went out. So did the AC. Then an oil leak sprung. I tried to convince my brother to make it a drop-top (that would have been freaking awesome), but the engine burnt up on him one day and the car died.
