General Comments:
Even though I have sunk quite a bit of money into this car, I really love it. It has great handling and a very powerful Vulcan 3.0 V6 engine. I have also put a lot of money into the car in modifications, of which there are plenty of available even for a car this old. The car is perfect to take on long rides and comes loaded with extras including power seats, power windows, power locks, air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes. The trunk is huge! People still can't believe how much I can fit in there. All in all, it does cost some money at times, but it is well worth it.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'd be checking your head gasket on it if I were you.
