<LI>V-8 engine with sufficient power to keep up with anything (110+mph top speed)
<LI>Torsion-Level suspension equal to most anything available today, even with computer design.
<LI>Everybody loves it (if they do not, then ignore them).
<LI>Great styling, albeit in the eye of the beholder.
<LI>Great interior, ditto.
<LI>Lots of room for passengers -- try that in anything less than a modern stretch limo!
<LI>Possible to upgrade to modern tech -- already discussed ad nauseum.
<LI>Great "what is that?" and "thumbs up!" factor.
<LI>That's enough for now. This requires another thread!
