Made this choice myself (in 1988) bought the Chrysler version of this - Which is the same car just rebadged. Black loaded with tan leather interior. My drivers license lasted almost 3 years before the great state of NC made me walk for 90 days.It’s 1985 and you’re headed to the dealership with all of your savings- which are you going home with?

wanted to add what a gunsmithed auto 9 (its a taurus 92) compares to a desert eaglei remember reading that the desert eagle was actually too puny looking in costume hand, and thats when the armorer said something like, oh i got this 93r in my car lemme whip it out and put a comp on it
they then used the desert eagle for this homage to squibs
obviously we're just talking about how cool it looks for a movie

I got one of these for graduation. $14k in 1989 dollars. Black with titanium trim. CD player and 12"s in the back. I had scholarships and grandparents who doted on me.It’s 1985 and you’re headed to the dealership with all of your savings- which are you going home with?
I put 40K miles on it in a year and drove the hell out of it as one might expect a stupid spoiled 18 year old would. I didn't really mistreat it but drove it fast and traveled all over Texas and LA in it. I certainly didn't appreciate what it meant to receive it and take care it the way I should have. Even looking at this pic I feel guilty for not appreciating it more, to receive a gift like that. I should have been treating it as if it was made of gold and love. I kept it for 5 years and put like 120K miles on it, and still got 3 or 5K to trade it in. Such a great car.
People loved the LX 5.0's because you could get them with the lower (higher) ratio'ed rear-ends? Or at least they were cheaper cars if you were going to mod them out for racing. I did a little of that when I got the car but people were pouring Thousands of dollars into their cars and I was happy just to go fast.
For all the talk of muscle cars in the 80's, though, my V6 Taurus has more HP.

This is actually a Oreo / Hydrox situation.
This version of the Ghostbusters is actually the original (based on a 1975 TV show)
Was the original
Was the knockoff / copy that became WAY more popular than the original
