They handle very well. My good friend in NY has one. He loves it to death, but as with all older cars things go on the. He has had to replace the rear calipers, he also had oil in the spark plug holes and his distributer has died a few times. But 1.8 V6 is pretty good. If you find a good one that hasn't been beat to hell go for it. I will find out what forum he goes onto and post that for you as well.
