I'm not going that far down the low-buck-supercar ladder....  Ugh, have you SEEN a Fairmont?  :P
Have either of you driven one? [laugh]

I can't really imagine driving one that had a motor. They were pretty slushy even going slow.

Yeah...  Even with the best Fox-chassis suspension upgrades (79-93 Mustang = same chassis), it's still lose to a equally quick Miata for cornering...

I'd look hard at a TT Fairmont gramma car :D

I've always wanted a Fairmont wagon sleeper from hell. Preferably with woodgrain.  [evil]
