The Saab 9-5. It is six years old but I could pass it off as new. A bit of a bias as this one is mine

Goddangit yes!

The comedy of it all is claiming that the 25-year exemption for emissions and safety regulations is to keep unsafe, “dirty” cars out.

Ha! I used to ride around in the passenger footwell of my Gramp’s ‘82 Suburban. Not sure of your age but growing up in the 70s and 80s was awesome, most of our modern conveniences without having to live like something was going to break me if I looked at it funny .

Basically, the same places one might go in the event of a tornado.

Cool! I used to own this ‘53 Buick Special and pretty much daily drove it.

1953 Buick Super. Looked like this but in worse shape.

As I’m inclined to claim, this old girl is my 1931 Ford Model A. I drive her as many chances as I get which, in the South, is quite a lot. I started driving it when I was 16 and later on it spent 2 years as my only car. Whenever Doug used to inquire what he should buy and live with, I never hesitated to tell him to

I used to own this 1949 Hudson a couple of years ago and drove it quite a bit. I was surprisingly reliable.

Need more wide body

I rented one of these a couple of years ago. Your assessment is spot-on, it was a great highway cruiser. Nice sound system, good ride, quiet (aside from tire thump over expansion joints) and that glorious (albeit lame-sounding) turbo six. That thing went 60 to felony charge speed in a blink.

You know the Supra is overpriced and overhyped when you can buy an NSX for less than half the price, and the NSX is arguably way cooler and more historically significant.

A certain movie came out in 2001 and ruined the market. A sequel did the same thing to 240SXs a few years later.

From the modern ones? I agree. But the C10 2000 GTR is my numero one.

I coudl barely see over the wheel and I’m parking Cadillacs!

Unpopular opinion but I really like the look of the 996. Those wheels really clean it up though, you’re 100% right about the stock wheels sucking. I actually had a dream about driving a 996 911 Turbo a few days ago and it was one of the best dreams I’ve had in a while.

Agreed. And, it should be a requirement that everyone with a nice, clean square Mercedes should have a set of Monobloc IIs - maybe not for full time use, but they definitely should be swapped on for periods, just do the world can enjoy them.

Collectors tend to go after cars that were popular in their youth. The generation that remembers the older cars are dying off. The next generation of rich people are is going after newer stuff. Just look at the prices on the 80s and 90s supercars.
