I wouldn't refuse it, but I am more a fan of the imports. The classics are pretty, but I kind of agree with Jerry: "The F word is like a Corvette."
That Dino was pretty cool. And an old Ghibli I saw there was amazing. I never saw much appeal in the hot rod musclecar scene, and modern exotics tend toward the spaceship asthetic. I have a strange soft spot for BMW 2002s, and only a confirmed contrarian would pan the 911. But I'll pick la sana gioia del vivere over Fahrvergnügen any day.
There's nothing strange about a soft spot for a 2002. Those cars are classic. Interestingly, Alfa Romeo is trying to break back into the US. They have such an unmistakable look that teeters between fun and elegant; I suppose in that way they're just like Italian food. I love a lot of classics, but if I had to choose a current favorite, it would probably be the BMW 6 Series gran coupe. To me, the lines on that car are as close to a work of art as any car I've ever seen. A colleague of mine drives a matte black one that I get to stare at in the parking lot from time to time. I'm not normally prone to jealousy, but everyone has their breaking point.
