That trunk is in a separate zip code.  Ah, the good old days.

Niice! I haven't seen one of these in that shape in a long time.

Yeah, there are a few dings on the sheet metal, but no visible rust (which, of course, does not mean there isn’t rust, but still). If they just fix the bumper, they have a special  ride.

The following generation (1993) is somehow even bigger.

I would drive it in a velour hat with a feather.

Chances are, that car’s engine makes fewer than 150 horsepower.

That’s just fine. T he slower I go in a car like this, the more time people have to notice me and be jealous.

I cannot view it that way. The proper land yacht needs to have at least a gazillion pound-feet of torque and a bazillion horsepower. It’s got to look good and haul ass.

I don’t necessarily disagree with you, but that is a very recent definition of the luxobarge.

Maybe, but my Pappy’s Chryslers always had 440s in them and they’d get up to highway speed quite well. Then again, that was pre-Malaise Era. I remember his ‘78 Satellite with the 318 and how unimpressed he was with it.

That’s pretty nice.

I’ m gonna say malaise can be in the eye of the beholder and just enjoy this boat.
