Well Lizzie's cars are similar or faster in straight-line performance and cost about $3500 new.

What good is straight line performance? I want to be able to turn too.

Although I'm not thrilled about BMW's styling these days, I would still prefer a nice new 330i than an old gas guzzling junker that rattles and clanks like there's no tomorrow.

My car in high school:

1957 Chevy Bel Aire coupe with a fuel injected 327/400+ hp Corvette drive train, snorkel intakes, exhaust bypass, reversed rims and highly modded suspension plus most of the other expected mods in a package of this kind.

In other words: a very fast sleeper

It was followed by a rodded 1958 Bel Aire, a Spitfire (racing), an MG Midget (racing), a GT-6+(racing), a Dino, a Celica (highly modded) and a string of other impractical but very fast toys.

My car in high school:

1953 VW Beetle with 30ps engine, canvas sun roof, side-flap turn signals, cable-operated brakes, non-synchro transmission, bulb & reflector head lights, and a hole in back for an engine crank.


I loved that car.

49 Fiat Topolino was my first - 500cc 4 cylinder - had to drain the fuel every now and again to keep it going stale in the 4 gallon tank!.

Hey Liz, if you buy the GTO, can I take have a ride? Please??

My favorite car was a 1968 Z28 with a Vett 350 LT-1 11:1 compression engine. Blew up the original 302 engine. My, that was a fast car. Would do 60 mph in first gear.

He does kind of have a point. They're not bad cars, but they're more for collecting than driving anymore.
