I find it interesting jess, considering your origin, that you admire american cars.
Well, I was born in Illinois and live in California. Also, I own one German car and two Japanese cars/trucks. So what does that say? ;)

I admire cars in general, particularly classics or RWD/AWD cars that perform well regardless of country of origin. I'm w/ MajikTerror in that I'd never own a newer (1984+ C4, C5, C6) Vette because they are too commonplace and because of the Vette owner stereotype. (What's the difference between a porcupine and a Corvette? With a porcupine, the pricks are on the outside.) I would, however, consider owning a first (1953-1962) or second (1963-1967 stingray) Vette as an investment. I don't like the third generation (1968-1982) Vettes because of their, IMO, inferior styling, particularly once they lost their chrome bumpers in the early 1970s and got plastic impact bumpers, and emasculated performance in post 1973 models.

Funny, that same stereotype is associated with BMWs, Benz, just about anything expensive. Because lower class people, or people who just dont havemuch money, envy.

and envy usually spawned jealousy. Especially in the car hobby. Hell, I see it happen in THIS hobby!!!



although, I would rather be looked at like a Prick who has money to blow, then a young punk kid trying to make his little hotwheels car sound loud and annoy others in traffic.

;)


I do however like your opinion on the older vette for an investmen. I am especially fond of 62 and 65.

One reason I hate about car threads is when people read on the net and read magazines they assume they know everything. I wouldn't knock on a car unless I did more than read up on it such as test driving one or done work on one. Another thing is you can't compare a dragster with a rally they were made to do 2 different things.
