When you drive your Eagle, how often do you have people come up and talk to you about it?
For me, when the car was in WI, I'd have one person ask about it for probably every 10 drives in the car. Now that the car is in AZ, I have someone talking to me about it probably every 3 drives in the car. And this is without me taking the car to car shows, this is just daily driving.

I'd say I get comments about 50% of the time if I'm stopped at a store, gas station, etc.  That's with my Kammback, which really draws attention.  The 2 door coupe, not quite as often.  Everyone seems to have good memories of them, nobody has every told me they are a piece of junk lol

What really draws comments around here is when I have the Sundancer out with the top off/down.  Folks chase me down and yell out their car window "What the &%$#@& is that??".  When I have the Pacer coupe out, they just point and laugh.
