Jesse, for setting the record straight. In it's day, pound for pound, the 544 was the most fun/practical/safe car on the road. I drove a '63 Sport for 18 years....everytime I went to replace it I couldn't find anything better. Ian should stick to editorializing on things he has actually experienced. Thank you.

Except it's an 89, so it's VERY retro. In my opinion, it was on of the finest cars ever produced. And it shows... 23 years later. I have the honor and privilege of driving this car everyday.

Hearty vehicle kind of heavy but so smooth to drive. The version I have is European, gold in color with dark green interior. I bought it a few months ago however planning to do some body work to it to bring it up to its original showroom stance. The funny thing about diesel is that you have to warm it up real good if not the car will not go into second gear LOL. Great post!

After Church I am driving 50 miles to look at one the same color and mostly same condition minus an updated radio. I have done an amazing amount of research on why to and why not to buy this car and I don't know why I wouldn't. No Maintenance issues I cannot perform and the best Drivetrain EVER BUILT. you have a lucky friend! These interior photographs are the best on the internet and they really sealed the deal for me. I'll try to comment again and let you know if I bought it or not. Thanks for your work and your ART! I plan on buying one of these today.
