Never liked the later A bodies, but that's sweet.

The blower whine would drive me batshit, however.

Pretty sweet. Definitely would go crazy from that whine and my cat would freak out.

Meh

Spent enough of my youth in those things.
Having to spend more than the initial retail value of the car just to make it go fast in a straight line does not make it a good car.

Isn't that true for pretty much any car you could buy for $2K or less? Name any car you could buy for that amount of money that's actually fast.

I like those Cutlasses alot...sounds like a bearing in an alternator going bad and not a blower.

Not my favorite car but it is nice none the less. I had a Vortech S-trim... centrifrical on a 92 LX Mustang and like it but I do like my Magnacharger on my Z06 better for everyday driving. You don't hear my current blower unless I'm hard on the gas. You can't even hear it unless I'm in the boost.
