< :angry: Now if you put a Grand National type car back into the line up.......you might have younger buyers (hint hint). If you aim to sell old people cars that's what you get old people buying. But remember our seniors are going to more frugal with purchases so buying a new car every five to six years is not going to happen if your retired. I see alot of the old 80 thru 87 Buick Regals as hot rods now and GM had a good thing going for them with rear wheel drive performance. There"s not a whole lot you can do with front drive cars for after market availabilty. Being a gearhead and avid hot rodder my purchases of hot rodding material is not going to be anything new than 1988 unless its a Mustang, Camaro, Firebird or even a Corvette. With Technology at it's all time high in automtive industry with fuel injection, overdrive units and aftermarket distribution of parts for classics car............why should I buy a new car when I can rebuild my Cutlass for half the price, drive a classic and have decent fuel economy.
