To pull off the 1972 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible properly requires either:

a. Burt Reynolds (circa 1982); or
b. Hunter S. Thompson

Opposite extremes, with no territory in between.

My wife didn't want one either. No big deal, IMO.

I can't get over the complete ugliness of the grill on the TSX. Now if it had the grill of the Euro Accord, then I'd be happy with it. Of course I'm years away from having the funds to buy one. Maybe Acura will have gotten over the beaten with an ugly stick look by then.

Something too cheap feeling and looking about them. Toyota's too boring and I really don't like the current Camry.

My neighbor had one of those when I was a small child. It was silver, and I think she had it until 1986 or thereabouts, when she traded it in for a brand new El Dorado.

I did work for them in LAS for a semester as an adjunct back in 2003. Many things have since changed and more information to go through. It seems everytime I see the HR director I had more paperwork to do and complete. Maybe it is just me but build a list of new hirer paperwork and tasks and give them a copy and you keep a copy and everyone is good!! :)

This is so wrong but when I first read that I thought it read, "My wife didn't want me, but no big deal!" Opps!! Think I need to relax a little!!

I've had 5 and my current new one is my absolute favorite (and cost a bit less than the one I purchased 11 years ago)!

Just had to seat guru my parents BA flight. So hard to convince old people that you can change your seats even if assigned by a cruise line!:rolleyes:

Neither does my fiancee. She would rather go with her sisters somewhere...which she does somewhat regularly anyway. :confused:

I like mine as well. Fantastic interiors and have never had an issue mechanically.
