    Great looking wagon. I'm partial to those body styles.

    After almost two weeks of ownership, one thing is certain:

    This car gets more attention than any other vehicle I've ever owned.

    Had two people in traffic roll up next to me, asking questions about it today. Mobbed at the gas station.

    I don't know what the deal is. It's got rust, scuffs, and like zero clearcoat.

    Mine is not a wagon, but wish i got more comments. Last good comment I got was maybe last year in the summer. I drove the 88 Crown Vic to work one day instead of the Marauder and some lady walked by my open driver window and said my car was the coolest car in this entire business complex. I was surprised since just about everyone working here is Asian (not that it matters) and they drive almost exclusively newer models of Mercedez, BMWs and Lexus and occasional Tesla or exotic.

    Of all those nice cars, mine was the coolest? A hoopty? lol. Well, I actually agree with her but that is because I'm different.
