This is the internet. You're just supposed to talk up whatever you do know as if you're a salesman for it. i.e. I drive a Supra and a Corolla therefore 2JZ is the greatest and so is the 4A and I don't care about anything else because it's all crap since I don't have it. I also have a stack of $20 bills in front of me, therefore 20>50 and 20>100 and 20>1000. $20 bill FTW.

Any car is good as long as it's not all rusty and puffing out deadly smoke. A well maintence car is good, doesnt matter old or new in my book. I only hate people that are arrogant and @$$es and brag alot, I can't stand that...hope those people get their cars taken away for all that trash talking some day!

Sure the old cars are fun and big motors are great, but there is a point when it is nice to have something fast and quite. The first time I realized how nice newer cars can be was sitting in a new ZR1 Corvette. I think that's the right one, 32 valve? Fast and reliable, quite and smooth. That car was faster than what I had at the time and it pured like a kitten not like the 240Z now.
It makes me think about how nice it would be to have fuel injection and a turbo on the Z. Crazy fast and reliable, what a combo?
