    The 'Parisienne' name wasn't used on the U.S. big Pontiac until the '83 model year, so yes, this is a Canadian Pontiac.

    Wonder what engine they mean by small 8. Does look sharp, though. Quite a number of our cars did not have a/c. In 80, it was nearing $1,000 to add a/c on a full sized GM, and that was a good 10% of the base price.

    It probably has a 305 Chevy, I do not believe the 301 Pontiac was installed in Canadian Built cars, and I do not believe that the 307 Olds was used in Canadian Market cars. I believe they were only (very qualified on this) installed in export cars, meaning US bound cars. Some export cars also got the 305 Chevy.
    Remember that I they only exported these to the US Mid 83 to early 89, and only wagons after 86.

    Clean enough to be the miles shown. Too bad this is not a wagon.
