which was the coupe with the "normal" trunk. I bought it two years old--hard to believe they've gotten to "cheap car" status. It was a fun little car, and surprisingly fun to drive in the snow--it had such predictable handling you could do 80mph on ice. My main beef was that it had a wide ratio 5 speed and yet was geared to low at highway speeds--sort of the worst of both worlds. At the time I considered it sort of a tin can compared to my '91 9000 and sold it after 1 1/2 years. It was reliable when I owned it, but no telling how they are now.
