I'm going to have to admit that it would be pretty hard to convince most people that today's cars are lame. I just think that (I believe this was mentioned in a different thread) cars of late seem to be more like stasis modules with a pressurized cabin, front-side-rear view cameras, GPS voice directions, tinted windows and even an autopilot. I suppose it's about one's perception of "cool". These cars, in my opinion, are definately not cool.


I also bring this up: New cars boast all these safety features, which I'm sure are all fine and dandy for minor accidents, but what about the family who can't afford anything better than a '84 VW Rabbit (whose airbags died years before the 21st century)? Does safety on the road only come with $20,000?
