So your theme song is, "Get An Ugly Woman To Marry You". A couple of lines from the song:

But if you make an ugly woman your wife,
You'll be happy for the rest of your life.



I bought an Ascona project car awhile back because guys like you insist on it's superiority, we'll see.

GT's can be made to handle like a slot car it just cost more to get one to handle well than it does for a 50 series car. I am a big fan of Manta's, and Wagons have their usage also (lots of space for lots of stuff). Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, if your thing is having a "sportscar" then you must be willing to make sacrafices as to room, easy of working on and cost of making them do what they were not build to do. The best Opel I have ever owned as far as all around room, driveability, power and good looks was a Diplomat. It was a prime examply of German engineering and American hot rodding at it's best (IMHO) too bad GM never brought that boy over so more of us could play with it.
