Several of my friends back in the late 80's / early 90's drove Tempos. They were popular, but where boring, unimaginative turd-mobiles. Much like the Aries K and the Chevette.

True, but didn't the excellent and upscale Topaz correct all of the Tempos shortcomimgs??? :rofl2:

Ahhh, the Topaz. Mercury's example of what a turd-mobile should be.

I had a buddy in high school who used to tell girls he had a Vette. Then he would pick them up for a date in his Chevette. My turd of choice back then was an 87 Dodge Charger. It was a hand-me-down from my Dad. Turd or not, I was thrilled to have it.
