I've owned an '89 MTX (the only flavor the came in) modded to hell and back and I've had a '93 ATX. Two things I loved about them both:

1) Size - You could fit full-size adults in any of the seats with actual legroom in the back.

2) Engine - The 3.0L and 3.2L Yamaha V6 is one of my favorite engines of all time. Bullet-proof and revved like a schizophrenic on PCP (I had an 8K RPM redline via a Superchip burn).

Unfortunately, the brakes on both models were good for about 50 feet before the faded like mad, the handling compared to a Contour SVT plain sucks and everything inside the engine bay (apart from the engine) fell apart at one time or another. I'm not going to even try and go over the list of repairs that both cars went through...

Maybe I got two high-maintenance rides, so ask around if you are still interested in changing over.

Best of luck.
