really, darling, I haven’t a thing to drive

Eventually it hit me that what I’m looking for, car-wise, is what I bought twenty years ago — except that this time I’d prefer that it not be a lemon. I really liked the Citation’s shape: a roomy midsize sedan with a big rear hatch. (And six cylinders.) Modernize that and . . hm. Is the correlation of my taste with the national taste negative or merely zero?
