Car has been in my family for years, was passed on to me, My father took great care of this car. it was my moms daily driver. This car means the world to me as its all i got left form my parents. :)
October 19, 2011I would recommend this model to anyone looking for a great ride. Fast, furious and fun. Great to look at and to drive. accellerates smoothly, cruises nicely at 80 mph, seems to hunker down, grip the road and go. Good brakes, relatixely quiet cabin, nice ride.
February 9, 2012Not my first car nor my first American car, but my first Arican muscle. When I got this bauty bird it was - awfull, if not to say more. Then 2,5 years hard work in garage after university and last summer 10'000 km over Baltic states and meetings. That was SUPERB!!!! At the moment car need some adjustments and hope to drive more and burn more rubber this summer season! :)))

March 15, 2011It's a great car that needs some work. It's fast for the year. The build quality could be better but it's typical of 1987.The car is very fun to drive fast and it corners well if it has good tires.
October 13, 2009I love my car.. it's a lot of fun to drive !
June 16, 2008Like almost everything and dislike almost nothing! Could use a little more hp and front bucket seat is a little uncomfortable and a little hard to get out of. But the 'bird looks and sounds great! The car runs really well and accellerates nicely and brakes very well. The car is a riot to drive and its size makes one feel secure but the t-tops cause some vision problems as they reflect off the mirrors. Cverall, however, this is a fine ride, well manufactured and fun to drive. I am proud to own this vehicle.
