84 Volvo 242, many mods including lowering springs, sport shocks sways front and rear as well as a total restoration which included placing HushMat on every surface I could see, even the roof...!
A beater.
It's a Lexus RX350 for my wife. Would not want to own it, except we we move twice a year between Orlando and Chicago areas, and it has a truck load of room inside for moving all our stuff back and forth. But for driving? It drives like a marshmallow. Definitely a beater.
That "old" truck is soooo cool with the Viper V10 and, I imagine, a manual transmission. And the motor is extra clean.
God bless,

She's been a good ride. 15 years and 68k miles with regular maintenance and only 2 true failures. One dead windshield washer pump motor and one replacement of the power steering lines due to a commonly known leak caused by a failing plastic sealing washer.
Wiggly sticks are a must. The 6 speed Tremec in it is a solid performer. The world is becoming a less fun place with the impending extinction of manual transmissions.
Have a number of them, but have grown rather attached to this craigslist find and save YJ. Need to spring for the matching can of spray paint to touch it up post body work (or not).
