 Had a buddy in college that drove an XR4Ti, I cautioned him to make
sure the turbo wasn't fried before he bought it. He bought it and loved
it, until some space-cadet nailed him from behind at more than 40mph
in a traffic jam (stupid twit). Since that time I had the chance to drive
a Scorpio, I was extremely UNimpressed. Now when I see one, I just
laugh, my '93 90S had a LOT more interior room, and a lot more
motor under the hood.
