I almost bought one of these used when the growing brood forced us into family car mode, but the rear seat wasn't wide enough for all the car seats. Went with a Taurus wagon instead, and didn't regret it.

It seems to be put together well. It just shouldn't have been.

@TAInvestor: I wonder how many of them are still rolling.

It's beautiful and all, but why do I feel like I need to take a shower?

I have to wonder: who's going to buy this used? Not other DINKs, who will want something new. I see great bargains ahead for those willing to put aside taste to get a more luxurious ride than they could otherwise hope to afford.

Now that's some launch control right there.

@Ash78: So you can go while you go.

A car without my offspring at the wheel.

@DonLuc: I would assume they light up when you start the car, but still, I think working that stack would be as dangerous as texting while driving.

Handsome. Pointless, but handsome.

@WarShrike: I was thinking the same thing—look at the carpet under the seat. Suspiciously reddish-orange brown.

They'll make an Enzo version of this if you want to burn a CD.

@FiverDriver: +1. Though I believe the traffic engineers have a lot to answer for, as well.

It must be a two-smart garage.

@grzydj: Speaking of the remade Camaro, just got close to one today for the first time. It's photogenic, but in person...bloated, bloated, bloated.

@OldeEnglishD: Wow, I feel spoiled now. Our '72 Dodge van had factory seating for 8. That was the entire options list, however. No A/C, no carpet or headliner aft of the cabin, no upholstery but for the sticky vinyl on the benches. Lots of bare metal, the welder's art proudly displayed. Just right for all-season…

The earliest family vehicle I remember was a '59 Catalina coupe. The back seat was wide enough to accommodate all 5 of my older siblings — unbelted, of course. Being the baby, I rode in the front on my mother's lap.

No one seriously hurt? We HAVE come a long way in safety, haven't we?

@Ash78: Or of Flushing Meadows.

That is absolutely brilliant.
