I personally like them & think they will be rare down the line.

I like them a lot! I also like the purple non-pacer. However, as much as I like them, the '70 454 is awesome and the 74 vert is a unique car that I really like too with it's split rear bumper.

Um, they did, right? i don't believe with the yellow wheels but did have purple with yellow interior option, correct? maybe it was purple with a different interior.

I remember those days. I had a few run ins with some people back home. Wasn't pretty on both sides.

"Hater" would be a bit excessive I think. Maybe a "Don't like'r" would be more appropiate? It's certainly one of the most gaudy color combo's I've seen on a car. But, I like white and red so who am I to judge? If you like it who cares what anyone else thinks.

While there is nothing wrong with debating the pros and cons of a particular car and everyone offering their opinions, I found this OP's comments in post #51 of this thread to be very enlightening.
