I would add to this, having owned 4 of these cars, that they are
exceptionally quiet and comfortable on the road, and get very good gas
mileage. They have all the modern conveniences, yet they are 23 years old!
We love ours, and find it is our most comfortable long distance trip car.
Looks are subjective, but most feel these are very elegant looking cars. My
keeper is very shiny black, and I often get asked at gas stations and the
like "when did they start making Imperials again?".
