"It's tougher than Chuck Norris" - LOL

Yes, you should buy it. I will pay for your first tank full of gas if you do!

priceless. buy it. Keep a printed copy of the ad with the car.

First off, this care is NOT intended for anyone who thinks race cars belong only on the track, secondly of all this car is awesome...........period. Here are some facts about this one of a kind custom (spelled kustom if you're really cool) 1988 Festiva type R GT SRT SS:
FACT 1) This festiva belonged to Mel Blanc, he's the guy who did all the voices for looney tunes back when American's weren't afraid to make fun of everything or to hurt peoples wittle feewings.
FACT 2) If you think you can handle the power of a real race car, then you should probably pony up the benjamins (all ten of them) and buy this car because it WILL prove you wrong, tearing your heart out on the way.
FACT 3) Seal Team 6 used Festiva's just like the one pictured here (except without the KUSTOM header pipe) to take out Bin Laden because of how A: fast these cars are and B: because of their small size and "stealth" ability..........yes it is possible to go so fast that this car goes invisible.
FACT 4) The exhaust pipe on this car is not for the weak man (because only a strong man can handle such authority), this exhaust was designed by a select group of Tibetan Monks to produce DRAGONS. That's right, the exhaust actually burns so hot that if you know how to feather the throttle and practice a little black magic....................it actually blows dragon eggs out of the pipe, thus producing dragons (If you have to ask what a dragon egg looks like you probably rode a unicorn to school and don't deserve this car).
FACT5) Sunchips taste terrible.
FACT 6) There is a small crack in the windshield about two feet long. It's ok though because I met Chuck Norris at a knitting convention and bet him $4000 he couldn't break the windshield with his fist. Needless to say I am now $4000 richer. You see Chuck tried punching the Festiva windshield 9 times and only managed to produce the small crack, he argued with me............BIG MISTKE! I told him the bet was that he couldn't BREAK the windshield, not just sissy punch it and crack it! I've put over 900,000 miles on this car since that fateful day.
FACT 7) This car (or spaceship rocket odyssey) only consumes 1 gallon of dinosaur juice for every 35-40 miles raced. I have actually had a Kuwaiti Sheikh ask me to take this car off the road because I, single handedly was, causing his regime to lose too much money last year............I TOLD HIM PICKLES ARE MADE IN WISCONSIN AND HE SHUT HIS STUPID BIG BEARD COVERED MOUTH UP!!!
FACT 8) I do not want to trade for three goats that lay eggs with new tires and low hours...............I gots to have that money!
FACT 9) My loss, your gain.....have two kids in college...........just don't have time for it anymore.........dog got sick and needs a proctology change......all oil exams done by the dealer..........
FACT 10) ** All statements in this add are true-ish

I DRIVE THIS CAR ALL OVER THE PLACE, IT RUNS, DRIVES AND STOPS.....BUT NOT FOR CATS- THIS CAR HATES CATS I JUST CAN'T BREAK HER OF IT....ALL CONTENTS ARE INCLUDED IN THE SALE SO IF A WILD MONKEY SHOWS UP STEALING FOOD FROM YOUR DOG'S BOWL YOU OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T CHECK THE SPACIOUS, LUSH INTERIOR WELL ENOUGH!

OMFG! That's funny!
But.....if you were seriously considering it, I'd say yes unless it was rusty. Before my Yaris I had a Festiva; they're pretty much indestructible.
