Those are all sporty cars, though.
I want just a car. Like an E30 or a Nissan B13, nothing fancy. Base model, even.
Like a Corolla, Imprezza, Focus, Civic, Veloster, Mini, Golf, Fiat 500...?
Saw a local dealership with a totally base Imprezza sedan, manual transmission, rent-a-car cloth interior, on cheapo steely wheels for $20k. I would hoon the E36 M3 out of that.

I'd do the same if I could find one. All of the poverty-spec cars on the dealer lots here are automatics. It's like they are allergic to manual transmission cars these days.

I get your point, I'm just sick and tired of the whole 'everything old is awesome and everything new is crap' attitude that permeates this place at time. We're currently in, or possibly coming to the end of, the greatest era for car guys we've ever had. Let's be greatful for that.
But remember, after Carroll Shelby built a Omni that would out handle and out accelerate the farrari of the same year, he was quoted as saying "a E36 M3 box, is still a E36 M3 box"
Todays cars do a lot of things well. And beauty may only be skin deep, but ugly can go to the bone!

Sigh, you know the saying about opinions and shiny happy people, every one has one. The funny thing is I really like the design of both the X6M and the Genesis, although I have no use for a sporty crossover. The Camaro, C8 Vette, BMW's sporty sedans, IS350 etc. all hit every branch on the fall from the very very tall ugly tree.

You seemed angry. I tried humor. At least I assume it showed it was humor.
Although I do like stuff now considered "old" in most cases
Dont see any consistency in you responses , so unsure what your actually saying.
I will ask, since you resort to insults... are you being funny, or trying to be an azz hat to me? I've seen you do both, so don't really know in this case. Heavy sigh.
Sorry no funny picture to add.
