[QUOTE] Apparantley in your book a Ford F-250 Pickup has the same value that a 1970 GTO would have. Given that you're so much more of a "car guy" than the rest of us, you're right: I should be driving that GTO everyday driving it's value down and incurring more wear and tear on it instead keeping it covered in a garage and saving my $ to get it restored. Thank you for that brilliant insight. BTW: The Mazda is a daily driver and an import is it not? By your choice? Regardless of who in your family drives it? My BMW is a daily driver and an import is it not? By my choice? Regardless of who drives it?..... Hypocrite. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
I DRIVE an import as my daily driver, and so does my wife......... I've never denied or even brought it up. How am I a hypocrite?
You brought up the F-250, which , btw, runs great and will continue to be driven, since it serves my purposes as a pickup fine. How did you deduce that I put it in the same class as the GTO when YOU brought the subject up? I am not a Ford F-250 fanatic, yet, I still keep mine in good operating condition, since I need a beater truck. Hypocrite? Do you even know what that word means?QUOTE]
In a previous post you had accused me of not really being into cars because I drove a BMW and not being a "true Pontiac enthusiast" because I didn't drive my 70 Goat on a daily basis, but rather chose to garage it until it coud be restored. You further blathered on about how I didn't take care of it because the paint was faded, etc. As far as the GM Monaro: Pontiac built their design reputation on a "wide track" format. I would like to see them incorporate this into a modern day GTO similar to what Ford was able to due with the 2005 Mustang. The front end of the 'Stang looks aggressive with the hood extending over the headlights and a full length recessed grill. The backend still has some retro cues. The boys designing the c5 and c6 'Vette have wisely kept the distinctive tail light treatment retro as well. Hopefully GM will follow suit with a newly designed GTO.
