@ET: Actually the 6-cylinder weren't too bad at all.  That 4-banger was a dawg, though.

@shodan66: At the very best it was passable transportation....that was a bad time for US automakers.

@staylifted: I'm sure they were.  People made fun of that car, even in their peak days, like they did with the Yugo and the Ford Fiesta.  The Pacer was somewhat cool because of all of the windows, but the Pinto was just sad.  Today, it's a bit of a nostalgic conversation piece, but that's about it.  You would need to rent a decent car to take a girl/woman out.  4951

@tatertot58: "Unsafe at any speed", aptly named.

@staylifted: You might find an artsy hippy girl that would find that cool, but I would be concerned with keeping it running.  Maybe an occassional, take out for fun car, but I would count on something else for everyday driving.  Maybe decorate it and put it in the art car parade. 4951

@ET: Agreed about it being a bad time for US automakers.  In their defense...just like the Chevy Vega...this car was built for exactly what you say...passable transportation.  They needed something in the low-end market because they were getting hammered by the VW Beetle, the AMC Pacer/Hornet, and a few obscure Mazda and Datsun (now Nissan) models.  My dad had a Mazda 808 for a while.  It was every bit as bad as my brother's Vega and my cousin's Pinto.  All were just cheap cars made to get from point A to point B.
