What do you want in the way of looks and comfort level? If you want the sportier look, go for an XR8. If you're after something that looks a bit less conspicuous and has all the fruit on the inside, then go for a Fairmont Ghia.

Just my opinion anyways! :)

A NF or NL Fairlane would be good.

NIce interiors, low km's, middle aged- elderly drivers so it wouldnt be thrashed.

Just needs a bit of oomph!

I think the EB fairmont V8 is a sexy car, and it has the power.
