But it also lacks (with no apparent side effects) a leaky dry sump
Many possible oil leaks
Cheap to repair
No troublesome fuel inection systems
Not particularly prone to rust
So why do they cost so much less - they were even half the price in 72!

Why do they cost less? Like I said, fit and finish...even Detroit used better naugahyde than the Japanese did back then.
