Found this article today, found it interesting that there is not a Honda, or even and Acura (mainly the NSX) after they bashed the nissan GTR.... good read though. Also was shocked to see the Lambo Countach on there too. Just wanted to see what everyone else thought about it.

Haha right?? I mean a few of them are true, but the GTR? Really?

Maybe they wrote that article in hopes they'll sway some opinions and they can buy those models cheaper . Some of those cars are extremely collectible & well into the 6 figure range if they're clean.

Yeah that Toyota (#1 I think?) was mentioned to be well over 1 million nowadays. But the I-roc Z barely made 200 hp? I did not know that

If the author doesn't like the cars listed, that's fine by me. Everyone has an opinion. Article just makes me scratch my head.

 

[Dennis Rockholt]

Yep that was why I posted it, because at least half of the cars on there were dream cars of mine at one point or another in my lifetime and that viper? ugh still love those

Some of them, it's the look of the car. The sound. The semi-prestige of driving a cool old car. Would I rather drive a toyota 2000gt or a new sienna? Yeah, the sienna makes more power and better 0-60 but seriously. If that's all that counts... ugh, I hope that guy loves his new Town & Country.

I just died laughing out loud at how you exploited his point so quickly
