Alex's 89 V8

Alex,
   My 1990 V8 also had the bad rotor light and continued to after the
pads were replaced. However, both the rotors and the pads were then fine
as were the sensors. Apparently the wire in the harness was shorted and it
didn't warrant replacing the rest of the harness so the mechanic just cut
it. 
   As far as buying a V8 anticipate spending lots of $$$ in maintenance
because it was a low production model and therefore there are no economies
of scale with respect to parts. Also, the car is a bit fussy. 
Best,
Larry
