Hi Mike.
They were definitely a fun breed to drive. My Spirit R/T embarassed many
a Camaro, Firebird, and even Corvettes. Couldn't hang with that one
expensive Corvette (LS1 or something like that) You should see the look on
the faces of these GM owners when they get dusted by a 4-door grocery
gettin' looking car from Chrysler. Priceless !!!!!!!
