Introduction

[Ed Kellock]

Welcome.

220k = 136,700 miles approximately.

Are you going to register in CA?

Do you have a glass sunroof?

Do you have a nice trick looking exhaust header or a cast-iron
standard-looking piece?

The hatches squeak.  The headlights suck.  The fuel injectors are hard
to find and expensive when you do.  Heater core is a huge pita to
replace.  The Speedline wheels are very prone to cracking clearcoat
and the screw/bolt heads are pretty much just for looks.

Just a quick brain dump on what I can recall are quirky about the CQ.
