I WANT the 3.6 72, but my wallet says I would be perfectly happy with the seventy-three and 500 thousandths.
Russian, what exactly does the 72 need re: interior finishing. It is really moot if the rest of the car is as nice as it sounds. Suspension stock? How are the bushings?

Jurgen, I have driven just about every model pre-nineties.
The 73.5 CIS is really a great car - runs very very similar to the later SC's but the car is lighter and the revband is a bit higher.
Every bit as reliable as any CIS system - I have driven this car to SF and back - to Las Vegas and back (so cal) W/OUT a hitch.
Loves 90-110 mph all day long
Suspension is stock. I cannot answer how the bushings are w/out pulling them out - but the car has a nice ride - it rides exactly how I would expect a stock 73 to ride if that helps?
I would drive this thing across the country w/ complete piece of mind.
If you are near the area please come have a look see
