A friend of mine recently got a used Corvette. I don't know what year it is, someone knew. Her husband didn't understand her odd obsession with getting the car; They last thing they need is a two seater. However, he sat in the car and punched it and it threw him back in the seat and now he loves it.
I recently discovered the joys of used cars. That car you wanted when you were a kid you can pick up dirt cheap. I recently bought a twenty year old pick up thinking it would be great as a back up car and also in the event we need to haul stuff. I figured I might as well get four wheel drive just for kicks. I fixed it up, repainted some things, new tires and chrome, looks like brand new. Turns out our truck has been a blast - I can and do haul stuff all the time, and a trip to the store is much more entertaining when the field next to the parking lot is a huge mud puddle.
Now on Craigslist I'm seeing all of the cars I wanted when I was younger - Like a mid 80s Monte Carlo SS, old Vettes, Mustangs.... All under $5k. I've always wanted a convertable so that's next on my buck list.
