Only because it looks like a southern car (no visible body rust, paint looks original, faded tops of the bumpers). Which means if it's not rusty underneath, I'd grab it.

If you are able to get the Metro, be sure to negotiate Grey Poupon to be included in the sale! |

Sexy?

Unless you're trying to pick up modders and hypermilers, stick with sophisticated.
