If that makes us weird, I have been weird since about 1975 when I drove a Monte Carlo for the first time!

I am proud to be weird. Proud to drive something not seen at every car show. When I pull in, I have the only one there. How many Tri Fives and 69 Camaros can you look at? Always been a Colonade Guy...Its not a cult, but a way of Life!

Count me in as weird as well. I did like reading the article and looking at the pictures. I can’t wait to get my Laguna out in public.

Weird? There were at least 5 73-77 at the cruise night this past Friday. A Citroën is weird not a mid size GM car.

4th gen A bodies are lighter, and the suspension is far superior to anything before, as well as the braking systems. The rubber in tires was getting better, so the braking and turning departments at the big three had to step it up. We had BF Goodrich TA Radials, and electronic ignitions. remember the points being opened by the lobes in the distributor? every 2 months it was tune up tie. we can go 60-100,000 miles.
