Thanks to all. I'll say one thing about my '95 GL. It was a great car to drive. Nice tight suspension, and a stylish interior for what is billed as an economy car. I can't believe ford never supported it as an Accord-killer. Even at the base level it had a lot more soul than most cars in its class and many above it.

My first long trip with it was a 920 mile drive to Nashville from Jersey. Made it in about 13 hours on about $30 of gas (about 30 gallons at the time). You couldn't even hear the motor and it hauled ass on acceleration for a 4 cylinder. Can't wait to drive the SVT.
