I purchased one in 2007 and loved it! Mine looked exactly like this one except it was teal green. I loved the looks but not the crummy door locks and that horrid intake manifold gasket on the 3100 cc engine. Can you believe it can take five hours just to change the gasket? Or a couple hours just to change the rear spark plugs? (You'd have to loosen the motor mounts, take a wench, secure it to a tree and rock that motor forward and hope the transaxle doesn't snap it's linkage!
Nonetheless, for all it's crummy faults I'd love to own another one as a yard ornament! It's a nice looking car!
I loved the body moldings as well! It reminded me of a "poor man's ferrari" with those side rib gashes, or whatever the proper term is!
