    A commentator on BAT wrote that we he was younger he paid no attention to these cars but, as he has gotten older, he has grown to appreciate them. Feel the same way. The older I get the more I like GMs 80s styling. IMO this is a good looking car and markfnc is right on about the color.

    I think that many of us are that way. I didn't really care for any of the 80's cars growing up. They were either new or slightly used and therefore everywhere. So they didn't really stand out to me for any particular reason. Looking back now I realize that it was really the end of an era in car design. The 90's ushered in bulbus, jellybean designs with integrated bumpers and grilles and lights and almost no chrome for better aerodynamics.
    I know a brick isn't very aerodynamic, but for some reason to me it looks better than a jellybean.
