Wow, that thing is like French or something, ain't it.

I know they're in the family, and I try to love them, but...

I bet in good shape it performs just fine. It's the same car, but 
standards and culture change. I bet it's a blast to drive.

But what bugs me most about the entire post-75 era is, square 
everything! Square guages, square headlights (still not down with that), 
square tail lights, square fenders, what drugs those guys taking/not 
taking? An entire decade of cars designed to be stackable or something.

(However now that we've been in the turd era for as long (eg. cars that 
all look like they were extruded by sphincters -- ogive in front to 
pinched off back ends) maybe I'd welcome cubic cars back. Nahh, probably 
not.)
