No more nor less of one than the R107 it was put up against.

But it's no 107.

"The cabin features power-adjustable seats trimmed in Natural Beige leather
along with a color-coordinated center console, door panel inserts, and
carpets. Interior appointments include driver-seat position memory, cruise
control, an onboard computer, and power windows. The car is equipped with
an AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo and Delco Symphony Sound, *although the sound
system does not work*. The seller notes that the air conditioning system *does
not blow cold *in addition to scratches on the leather surfaces.
The two-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts digital instrumentation
that includes a 150-mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 5,200-rpm
redline as well as gauges for oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel
level. The digital odometer indicates 15k miles. *A “Service SDD System”
message is displayed in the Driver Information Center, and the fuel-level
gauge does not work*."

This is a 15 k mile car. A real POS.
