Here is a new acquisition for me and a true forgotten gem that I’ve grown to love. I am considering a write-up if anyone is interested.

Is that a 929?

I, too, would enjoy reading a writeup.

Yes, tell me of this beast. I find it oddly...enticing.

I as well. A friend’s father had one back in the day.

Rust has killed all of them up here.

929 FTMFW!

Does it have the blue-tinted glass and side view mirrors?

The side glass appears to have a blue tint, the front is gray but is also aftermarket. The side view mirrors are tinted blue as well.

I just gave a short review with pictures of the car if you’re interested.

Good write up. And I also know the struggle of a 4 speed auto.

It is incredibly smooth shifting but desperately needs that extra ratio at about 70 or so. I’ll suffer the auto for as nice as the car is though.

I get my best mileage at around 55. So I can be slow and get great gas mileage, or be on time and get horrible mileage. Yes, I very badly want the 5 speed that was available.
