Oh come on Andrew, Yugos weren't all that bad, they had rear window defrosters to keep your hands warm when you had to push them!

Or a Neon.. Drive it off the lot and it is suddenly a $4000 car... some cars are just meant to be thrown away, others are meant to be destroyed in a dramatic fasion including tire smoke, screaming RPM, oil splattered everywhere and the crankshaft layin on the ground still connected to the input shaft of the transmission, while the rest of the car is still rolling through the lights at the big end...

do you buy these cars for their value? or do you buy them, put your sweat and blood into them for the fact of owning a piece of history when america was seeing better times, stares down the road, thumbs up, as well as having the stock ability to burn the fuzzy dice off of the ricers?

cant wait till i get my classic! could possibly be coming this year

Sorry guys, but with the way american cars are produced these days, it is a far shot to say they will be valuable one day.

guy#1, "Hey man check out this 99 civic, and it's even got a 5 foot wing on it"
guy#2, "no way man, check this out, an 04 tiburon with a fart muffler, and it's stickers are all still mint!!!"
