YES
to Everything
Best place to get to know the car is to putter around town for a day
and then get out on the highway and go for 80 miles to open her up.
They drive like old cars or like cars used to long ago.

They feel a bit "breathless" at highway speeds due to the low gearing
(84 mph is the top speed with an auto, you might get a couple more mph
out of a standard).
A long trip on the interstate might be tiring, but they DO go forever
on fuel, usually in the mid 30's on the road. I used to drive mine
(when it ran) for three weeks on a tank of fuel to and from work.
They are SLOW on acceleration, you should drive it a bit before you buy
it, it can get quite scary of you forget. You will spend quite a bit
of time with your foot to the floor in normal traffic.
