Anyone remember these,owned one,liked or disliked it? I have one that's in pretty decent shape just needs an exhaust system. A mid 70's "luxury sports sedan". It's fun to drive, has good get up and go but thirsty at the pump.
 
A car that set standards in it's day. Everything was thirsty in the 70s as engineers came to grips w/ emission controls. Gas was still cheap-ish, so they didn't worry too much about fuel milage...I bet it gets great milage compared to say a 76 Lincoln.
 
Yah the 76 Lincoln had over 400 cubic inches I believe? That Chrysler Newport wagon probably didn't come with the slant six either I'll bet. :smile:
