Battle Cruiser with comfy seats
Car was purchased used by my grandparents back in 1995 with 55,000 miles on the clock. They drove it till 2014 and 200,000 miles. I then purchased it from them and now in 2017 I have just this week crossed the 250,000 mile marker. Things that I don't like -No electric radiator fan (car runs hot if A/C is used when sitting) -Only one usable cup holder -back seat leg room is poor -Rust Those are my only real complaints about the car. Other than that she is the best car I have ever owned. You can drive for hours without fatigue. You won't be winning any drag races with this car but at highway speed you can drop the pedal and pass with ease. The 5.0 v8 that comes with the car while it has a nice exhaust note it is criminally under powered. Making only 176 HP from the factory it is no race car. But with the low end grunt of 255 ft/lbs of torque at your disposal you never feel like you are short on power. The car itself looks like nothing else on the road and with its size is a commanding presence on any road. Be prepared to pay up for premium fuel to ensure a smoother idle and easier starts in cold weather. And a recommended add on is a glasspack exhaust, it gives the car a louder more throaty rumble that sounds menacing at idle
Most Reliable Car I've Ever Owned
I have owned several 1992 to 1996 Caprice's over the years and have found them to be excellent cars. Very reliable, good performance, and great gas mileage that is as good as or better than much smaller cars. I have put over 200K miles on my cars with no major repairs. Everybody raves about Toyotas and Hondas but my experience with them has been much worse than with the Caprice.
