The cars of the 50s and 60s weren't like that. Sure, they appealed to the "bread and butter" CROWD, but they were elegantly styled, passionate cars, made for the masses.
How many of you would turn down a 1957 BelAir? I sure as hell wouldn't.
How about a 1966 Toyota Corolla? I don't know about you guys, but I'd pass.

Agreed. I tend to root for the underdogs, and I prefer niche, individualized, and unique to one-size-fits-all, blend into the crowd.
