At least it has "racing" tires on it. :lmao:
Just kidding, comfort is important. I actually have a 300M that I am selling (bought it to sell it) and I (hate) to admit it, the thing actually rides really nice! :hmm:

Not so much old man's car as much as slow driver's cars. 50% of the time when I'm stuck behind someone doing 5-10 under the speed limit, there's a 92+ Buick up there. The other half it's a Dodge Caravan slowing me down.
At least you have white letter tires!

Do what you need to for a commuter car. Just remember what lurks in the garage!! Comfort is very inmportant day to day, especially if you have any sort of commute.
But yeah, you will still get the old man jokes!! lol

The RWL tires make it cooler than my Olds Intrigue, and that is hard to do.

Well, that alone confirms that you are officially old!! But I agree, but only because I guess I am considered old too!!! LOL!:headbang:

When you want to race, let me know. I'll take my OHC Olds 'Rocket' up against that racing inspired ride of yours. :)

When I first got my license, I bought a '91 Buick Century (65k on the odometer) for $1,000. Did some minor things and replaced the radiator, sold it 6 months later for $2,000. I miss that car, lol. She treated me well and rode nice, too. Ole Betsy or Betsy Sue was her name, depending on the day, LMAO.
Enjoy the car!

...... and it's most likely being driven by an old man wearing a hat.
