Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Friends new Festiva

I think it is really SAD when people have to express their love for AMCs by calling everything else a piece of shit. There are a lot of good cars out there. Believe it or not, some of them are even foreign. And there's a lot more to "performance" than quarter mile time/speed.

Sorry about that, I just though I emailed him back, not the whole group.
Hey I have 3 Hornets. I think that shows where my loyalties lie.

Hi there,
A friend of mine just purchased a 1988 Festiva L he found on Craigs List for $400
It has only 89k miles on it. It is red with a 4 speed.
He had a butt load of brake work done to it,and I rode with him in its maiden voyage of 200 miles round trip to a youth camp last weekend.
It didnt miss a beat. I was impressed. Especially when we found out how much better it handled around sharp corners when we both leaned.
He has owned 2 previous Festivas. A 1989 and a 1993. He got around 300k out each of them.
He has plans to customize his. He named his "Torchwood" from the Dr. Who tv shows.
He almost has me convinced to get one...I'll see
Right now I have other projects.
I just thought I'd let you know. Luke
Umm.....thanks but i'll pass on one of those Korean made shitbox's. Just because we all like Gremlins and the cars related to them on here doesn't mean we set our standards to that of whale shit and want a 'Festiva' LOL
