I have only seen a couple of 91-92 birds that I REALLY liked. I generally hate that nose. But if the car is nice enough I wont even care about the nose. cg91ta's car is one of those.

I like them both, but the 91-92 looks more of a crossover style to me, it was kind of like Pontac saying... were changing the whole thing in a few years, but for now, lets give them this...

But I like them both...
