In response to ihmet!Anonymous's note to stay away from Horizons and
Omnis, I would like to add my view (un-anonymously).  I bought a 1983
Chrysler New Yorker 5th Avenue.  It has never run right (engine skips at
highway speeds), the dealer and factory rep. can't fix it (9 tries including
replacement of the fuel control computer and carburetor), customer service
has been poor (the factory rep. never returned my phone calls), and Detroit
has been totally unresponsive.  I was finally forced to go to the Chrysler
Customer Arbitration Board for resolution.  Net.auto readers may remember 
this, as I have looked here for help before.  Read net.consumers to see
how the story ends (I promised to describe my Arbitration board experiences).
This is, of course, neither a recommendation to buy or not buy the car
