The biggest problem with today's cars are the fact they have no character or soul. Years ago you could tell what kind of car was coming at you on the road. You would know the make/year/model. Look at the character of the Imperials from the mid fifty's to until the early seventy's. When will Detroit wake up?

Today's cars are isgrace..just put an old Imperial next to a brand-new Cadillac....Pretty obvious..the caddy..doesn't even look like what a Caddy should look like! What's wrong with detroit's designers..are they all blind..or tasteless??? I'll take a a 50'2 Mopar to anything on the road today...And crazy people spend forunes on BMW's??
