Such a nice car. I bought wide tire for the back to be cool and I think it just bogged down the skimpy 6 cylinder engine.

No story.
Pros
It is a real muscle car.

Gas.

I picked this car up for $750, and it's been a godsend. After 30 years, it runs like a champ, is comfortable inside and looks stylishly retro on the outside. The gas mileage is acceptable and the handling is superb.
Story
Driving it home in a horrible rainstorm only to find out that I'd never tested the windshield wipers (which no longer worked). Everything else worked fine, so I wasn't overly worried about it.
Pros
The 1986 model "Nova" is actually just a Toyota Corolla, rebadged and assembled in California by GM's joint venture factory, "NUMMI." Everything fits together flawlessly (few squeaks or gaps, even after three decades), the engine bay is large and accessible, and the interior is huge for a compact car.
Cons
ZERO safety features (no airbags, lap belts in the rear, razor thin doors, etc.). The gas mileage could be better for a 4 cyl, but it was decent for the 1980s. The wheels are tiny and tend to take potholes harder than most vehicles. Acceleration's terrible and it has trouble keeping speed up long hills.
