i tend to repect cars that are either technically innovative, extremely durable, or really well done.

examples: the 20's-30's bugatti's has cockpit adjustable suspension, aluminum engines, 3 valves per cylinder, superchargers etc,.

my triumph, its a 45 year old car that runs perfectly, and i havent had to work on it at all

or say jim labrecks fd, you want to hate it because of the v8, but the attention to detail and the craftsmanship is second to none, plus its 100% bolt on



cars i dont respect: any other honda, cars that are stupid (read ford), and cars that are poorly done.

i drove a 92 civic a couple of weeks ago. not only was the suspension worse than a 58 tr3, but the honda was a lot slower too.

stupid cars: why on earth would you buy an expidition, its $50k!, you could get a hummer if you wanted to go off the road, or an escalade if you wanted to attempt impressing anyone

you've seen them, the lowered cars with the wire spoke wheels, etc
