Is it wrong that I am almost NEVER impressed by ANY Ford made between 1916-1948? No matter how it's modified? There's just too many of the fuckers around... hotrodding a Ford made between those years is simply saying, "I'm a cheap bastard with no creativity, but I want to look cool..." in my opinion.

#2, I'd be more impressed by a stock one than another cookie-cutter hot rod/street rod/whatever else sucks and ends in "rod". Those sorts of things have always struck me as a case of "let's add a bunch more power and then modify the suspension in a way that makes it even worse to drive!" :p

Well, yeah, stock ones are better, but still there are still too many around... it's bad when you go to a vintage car show, and 20% of the show is a row of Model A's that all look the same.

That sort of stuff pops up at a lot of car shows. Heck, my sister, father and I went to the Turkey Rod Run a couple years back, and it got kind of boring seeing one Chevelle or Mustang after another. :/ It seems like nobody keeps and shows the really unusual stuff from any era. :(

#5, Yeah, muscle cars are a problem at car shows too, when it comes to there being too many of them that look the same... it's nice when stuff like a V16 Cadillac, a Packard hearse, a Kaiser Darrin, etc., show up.

I passed a '29 Model A two-door sedan on the highway the other day...black with tan wheels and interior, all stock and cherry. They never really fail to impress me, especially when I see them driving.

As for the hot rods, I don't care for the more modern type, but I love a nice traditional hot rod. That black highboy on the right with an Ardun-headed full-house flathead (or maybe an early OHV Cadillac with a LaSalle 3 speed) would kick ass.

I think seeing a car like that out by itself on the road is one thing, whereas seeing a row of thirty that look identical just sitting there is another.

its a reason why i like my car. even though its really nothing spectacular. it stands out in a crowd. even with bad paint and interior. there are a few around these parts but mine is the only L-type ive seen. in a few years when Mk2s become even rarer(and when its in show worthy shape) i think itd stand out nicely among 3rd gen camaros and foxbodies.

Honestly, if I go to the pre-war section of a car show I want to see really obscure stuff....Whippets, Willys-Knights, Chandlers, Gardners, Stars, Hupmobiles, Essex Terraplanes, and so on. At least throw in the odd Oldsmobile or Packard.

#9, No offense, but I have hard time favorably comparing a FWD V6 "plastic-fantastic" GM sedan with Camaros and Mustangs...

I'd never compare my car with an Impreza or Eclipse.

I don't think they'll ever be rare, either. I remember when I was a little kid, every other car on the road was a Corsica, Beretta, or Lumina. It used to amaze me even then how many I saw every day.

Perhaps they'll be the Model As of tomorrow.

#11, He's refering to the Supra. We got that particular model in two trims, L and P types, with P-type being the sportier model.

You could always change your profile.

Yeah, it's confusing, since you've still got a Beretta listed as "Car You Drive".

#14, *bowing to Retta in an apologetic fasion*

Aye aye aye, sorry sorry sorry. Yeah, that's why I'm soooo glad I never pick screennames that relate to something I like or have... except for one time that I did that, and now I really regret it (My NationStates nation... "NASCAR Stock Car Racin"... I regret it now since I'm not really AS big into Nascar as I used to be, and I'm likin' Anime more often these days. My Nation is almost up to 4.5 billion people, and I woulnd't want to start over from scratch with only 5 mil.)

To think, if I HAD done something like that here, I'd be stuck with a name like "PurpleCavvyWagon" or something :P

...and yes, absolutely your Supra will be considered a classic down the road... I personally would consider it a classic right now.

Anime Death Tentacle Rape would work as a nation name.
