The Mondial' s rear buttresses on the convertible top are pretty amazing...they maintain the lines of the coupe - unlike so many drop-tops these days (I'm looking at you Audi TT.

I happen to love the Mondial. 4 seat (for the kids), drop top, and gated shifter....what's not to like? So what if a WRX would crush it in virtually every performance category. Not the point. This is for taking the family out for a nice Sunday drive.

Many scary times....perhaps documented here under guise of "times you nearly died driving" or "when have you driven despite all common sense telling you to stop".

Although I've dialed down my Jalop-time to ensure that my little NJ ad agency remains a going concern, I still drop in daily. Thanks for giving an old timer like me a COTD!

Excellent use of the post comma clause....

Always good to hear from the Loverman. Should I save a seat for ya at the 2011 USA7s national, Jonny? Beartooth Highway, I think....

I could probably find a bazillion crap body kits that have a similar front. Maybe it's Lexus who should be suing Hyundai?
