It was really smooth, not very powerful, and rode really nicely. The seats were vinyl and the AC was weak, so it was easy to get hot in it. It was a fun car!

That was my second question, is it on a fiat x1 type chassis?
I had a friend once, with a fiat x1/9. It broke, so another friend came along with his chevy chevelle and we chained the fiat to the back, towing it down the road with a long dangling chain.
To be a clown, and since the chain had slack, the x-1 guy hit the brakes, which immediately pulled the chain taugh, ripping the front bumper off, and pulling the two fender arches together popping up the hood due to lack of room
Whoops!
