Don't be talking crap about my Pacer, Fiesta Boy.
Remember the Wayne's World movies? Now there's a cult following for you!
I never saw a stretch Fiesta limo either!
Ok I don't have a Pacer nor will I be getting one (sigh of relief from my
wife looking over my shoulder).
Again my point is simple, beauty is in the eye of the beholder ( I didn't
make that up BTW) and a BRICKLIN IS A COOL CAR.
