Anyone else pick up on this fact, he payed $1200 for a '88 FORMULA IN 1995?

quote Originally posted by Tinton: I can never understand why some people drive their cars with the seat fully reclined. So, you're gangsta if you do that? I thought it was related to having things like DVD players and $10,000 stereos in cars, its supposed to give you that "home away from home" feeling? You know, so you don't actually have to feel like you're driving. It might just be me, but I enjoy driving my cars, and I like being able to fully control them. You're not the only person who slides the seat all the way back. I've heard that if you do that, it also has less wear on the seats when you get out of the car.

I wasn't serious when I said Gangsta, I just couldn't think of anything else to say. I didn't even mean slung back like some people have and they actually have to do a half sit up to see. I used to have the seat comfortable reclined in my Cavalier, but it wasn't a performance oriented car and had electronic assist steering. Whenever I would actually want to drive "spiritedly" it I'd pull the seat forward and the seatback up. The Fiero always commands that kind of respect.

I HATE it when I see a BIG car, when if you are behind them all you see is the top of a head. Like, "how can you see where you are going looking through the spokes of the steering wheel?" Periscope anyone?

Come on, now it sound's like you're picking on my GRANDMA in her 66 Fairlane!

you have to figure it was mid-late 80's they were out, not to bad for their time I guess you could say. Today yeah they're rather tortoise like stock, as everything is getting driven by turbos, superchargers or just flat out big V8's.

but hey who buys a car like this or any sports car for storage

overall though for the price he paid sounded like he didn't aquire one that was to well taken care of.
