Default New vs Old Cars



Funny you mention the Vega...my older brother had one and it was an
epic piece of ****. I guess you could call it the '70s version of the
Cobalt.


*The Vega was indeed an "epic piece of ****". Even a broken clock such
as yourself is right twice a day.


While you seem to be missing a big hand and a little hand, autistic
boy.


Vinylanatch, who died and left you a degree in psychiatry you could
put your name on as if you could have earned it?

You don't know your ass from a teakettle.

Your opinions on old cars are as dopey as those on audio. For
example, now in 2010, a Porsche 928 could be called an "old car". We
rarely see them out here, even though they were subject to the usual
Porsche galvanizing and so the tinworm hasn't impacted them badly. A
928 has brakes and roadholding on a par with current production cars,
and is a far better car than any rear engine Porsche. The seats are
first rate. First rate seats started with Recaro in the late
seventies, and one of the great things about project cars is you can
put any seats you want in them. The Bosch electrics are mediocre, but
most German cars still have Bosch electrics and they are still as
mediocre as ever.

That's why you're impressed with crap like Harbeth speakers and
koetsu cartridges. You see things in terms of preppy peer acceptance.
I don't like preppies or yuppies.
