In my opinion very cool styling.
Things to look for.
- deck was very heavy due to the pods and proned to stress cracks.
- Bottom was not stiff enough on early versions. Cigarette fix most of them by adding chicken feet under the engines between the stringers.

Very popular in Europe.
I don't love the styling and would most likely shy away from them for that reason. I think that relative to the TG they would be a hard resale....

188's
The 188's and Revolutions were all made on 188th Street. Cigarette stopped production of the 188's and Revolutions long before they moved off of 188th Street.
