  • My dad used to own this car

    My dad has this car up until around 2004. Loved the cool features such as the retractable seat belts. Such a cool feature to have in older vehicles

  • Reliable than Ever!

    This car is very great for its age. I own it as of now and for over 20 years its still keeping up. It manages to run properly and gets the job done from A to B. I really enjoy this classic old school car and cant wait for the rest of the journey it will bring to me

  • ridiculously reliable car

    Absolutely awesome car! My dad bought it new nearly 20 years ago and the cars never had a breakdown or other serious problem. only small leaks or electrical issues like the windshield wiper fluid leaking and the electric door locks stopped working. But otherwise this car has been excellent! It was a hand me down to me 2 years ago when my dad got his brand new Nissan Altima, also a great car so far. There's tons of space for driving around with friends, some who are 6'2 and 6'4. All the speakers were the cheap paper kind so naturally they wore out, I replaced them with kickers in the front and DP for the rear speakers. Gas mileage was pretty bad for a while (from 13-16mpg) but now I get a steady 17 mpg with about half freeway and half in town driving. All around great car and I couldn't ask for a better first car!

  • BEST CAR I'VE EVER OWNED

    I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND TURNED IN A CADILLAC. IT WAS SO GOOD THE FIRST YEAR I ALSO BOUGHT A 1994. THE 1963 HAS 158,000 MILES ON IT WITH NORMAL MAINENANCE. IT DRIVES THE SAME WAY IT DID WHEN IT WAS NEW.

  • Great, reliable car

    Excellent car. Strong, fast engine, luxury features, reliable, well-built engine. Far exceeds similar models by Toyota and Honda. This is a really reliable car too, I've only had basic maintenence repairs in the 4 years I've owned it. Runs solid and smooth every time, as long as you keep it maintained (as you should with any car you want to last).

  • LOTS of visits to the car shop

    Jerks a lot cuts off like evry five minutes brakes squeak never starts on first time. Seatbelts get stuck. Heard a lot of road noise. But I liked the look of it and the comfort of the seats. It sometimes drive smoothly also.But like a said it is not worth It.
