Ended up taking my Spirit GT off the road for several reasons (not gonna get into em here)...needed to replace it w/something cheap, decent (20-30mpg) on gas, & most importantly, something I like!! The result (thank you Craigslist) is a 1991 Eagle Premier ES, in my opinion, one of the best vehicles AMC/Renault never sold!! Roomy, great handling, awsome ride & decent (for a Renault) power. if AMC had managed to hold off Chrysler's advances, between the 4WD surge in the 1990's, & the Premier's platform, they might still be around today!!! It's well documented that the LH platform developed by Chrysler borrowed heavily from the Premier, & was even built at the same plant in Bramalea, Ontario...sigh...what might have been....well, I feel as I now own one of the last vehicles designed & engineered by AMC...wonder if I'd be welcome at AMC shows with it???
