Yea, I've been driving it lately and there's still some traction left on the tires. It's still driveable for a good few months (just scary driving in wet weather), so it gives me some time to get some money.

I agree these cars are very tail happy. Can predictably break the tail loose in turns. With worn bushings, it just gets worse. My car perpetually feels like it is hydroplaning if pushed even a tiny bit in the rain. New bushings in the works.
