Who's into old school cars? Thinking about picking up one of this. I know the wifey will be upset but i'm a car person.

Is that a cressida? I like the early celica/supra, 240z, and 80s bmw 3 series.

Yes, it is. They are becoming more difficult to find a decent one nowaday.

Get a pinto n make it fast.  Kids these days don't know the pinto and association with "attention Kmart shopper" stigmatism

Who's into old school cars?

Yes to some models, and no to other models...

I like some muscle cars of the 60's i.e., Camaro, and some Japanese cars of the 70's i.e., Celica

60's and 70's cars are rare and  parts are hard to find unless you want to do a complete overhaul. Even some 80's car parts are harder to find too.

I would love to have in my possession a 2nd generation Honda prelude 2.0 SI.  No power what-so-ever but, damn, I dig the style of the car a lot.

Some of these cars are worth way more than their original MSRP:

Just pick up a cressida for a really good price. Will transform into something like this later on....
