The passenger door was longer than the driver door. Wow. *stunned silence* 
zero to 96 km/h (60 mph) acceleration time of 15.8 seconds and a top speed of 142 km/h (88 mph). They reported a thirsty 16 mpg fuel consumption.

As an interesting contrast on what a small sporty four-passenger car could be, R & T tested the new front-wheel drive Volkswagen Scirocco in its February, 1975, issue. Although the Scirocco gave away a few inches here and there in passenger space to the Pacer, its packaging efficiency was far superior. The 875 kg (1,930 lb) Scirocco represented the future; the Pacer was a holdover from the past.
Yay, this is the only part I read.
i wonder how come it was so heavy. They must have used iron for EVERYTHING.
I love the pacer
The pacer is so ugly. What if someone smashed the rear windows... I hear they are quite a bit.
I kinda like the styling. It's different anyway. It's too bad it sucked everywhere else that was important though, It could've been really neat.
