On this we agree.
My first brand new car was a 1963 Impala Super Sport Convertible.
I much desired the 1956 T-Bird but could not afford. Had the opportunity to buy one about 10 years ago, but when I sat in it and drove it, I found I had lost interest.
I bought a 1978 Corvette (Anniversary year) new. And many others.
My problem is that I covet many vehicle, particularly for their design features. But in about 2-3 years my interest has dropped.
I expect this will also happen with my new 2006 XF Roadster.
My wife says its OK as long as I only discard the vehicles.
