Subject: 70's cars rule OK!
and 80's and 90's cars don't!

You are absolutely right. I can't stand 80s, 90s and year 2000 cars. They have no style, and no class (and no headroom). Plus they look like little bubbles floating down the road. They have no room inside, no room in the trunk and you can't work on the engine because there is no room under the hood! Besides that, they are all plastic, figerglass and aluminum and they turn into a pile of scrap in accidents. 60s and 70s cars kick butt! And the bigger they are, the better! Long live vent windows, bench seats, column shift automatics, windshield wiper switches on the dash, high beam switches on the floor, and headliners that stay up! Not to mention 8-track players!

SO, How do we let the car manufactures know? How do we convince them? Wait a minute... If they did make retro-style cars of the past, they would still be made up to todays standards - meaning model changes and gas efficiency (not a particularly bad change). Did you all notice how the Volkswagen Beattle design was desecrated??? Modernized??? Plus, they sure wouldn't sell for the prices of the past either. They would be very expensive in the auto world.
