It had a very smooth ride, but the Northstar engine was a gas guzzler. In addition, I had oil leaks that were severe enough that I needed to add a quart or two of oil in between oil changes. The oil leaks were not noticeable, though. They did not drip onto the ground. The oil was leaking into other compartments in the engine, and I didn't have $3,000 to get them repaired, especially when the car itself only cost me $6,500.
Story
I drove this car to Indianapolis, Indiana because I was hungry for Famous Dave's Barbecue. I drove three hours for a hearty plate of ribs, and it was worth it, too. My car and I both ate up—I ate ribs, and he drank a quart of oil.
Pros
The car had a very smooth ride. It was the smoothest riding car I've ever owned. I enjoyed the leather interior and heated seats. It also had a nice Bose stereo system.
Cons
This make and model is notorious for having oil leaks, and my car was no different. They just got worse over time. It wasn't that I neglected to get them fixed—I just didn't have $3,000 to have the engine work done to fix the oil issues. I should have shopped around for other estimates, and I admit, I did not get them fixed when I should have, but no vehicle should leak so much oil that 2+ quarts need to be added in between oil changes.

They were nice about the price of the vehicle. They were prompt in offering me service. They did not hide anything about the vehicle while I was buying. They offered nice service and they were nice the entire time that I was there. The purchase went through very smoothly and I would buy from them again.

They provided good service and they were able to answer any questions. They were quick with responses and during negotiations they were fair a honest. The salesman was not trying to get any extra deals and was not shady about the vehicle. The overall sale went well and I would return.
