I have been going over this with myself. I like old cars, they just plain old offer more feedback then newer ones. yes, of course they have drawbacks and flaws, but they also have more uniquity. My situation is I live where it snows, but I have an old Volvo wagon for getting through the winter. I also have a "fun" car for the really nice weekends in the good weather. BUt I want a fun DD for the rest of the year. I used to have a '72 Volvo 142s with a lot of upgrades and that was good. 3 years 90K and still going very well when I sold it. I currently have an '83 Alfa spider, nice but not in the so-so weather. I am tending towrds selling it to get an Alfa Milano or perhaps an MGBGT. One is newer and more modern with still being "not new", the other is easier to work on, still cool, definetly not new and both are very "upgradeable" BMW's are too...uh well after watching modern BMW drivers, the enthusiasts are gone and replaced by the "trinket chache' lovers" Volvos and SAABs are ...I dunno' I have done a lot of Sweedish in the past, I know them well but...../ Japanese cars ...few are attractive to me, (especially the interiors) and my wife already has a Subie. Any ideas?
