Yeah? So was my mexi when I bought her... she still is. But I drive her cause she's a car and that's what she does best (when her engine is in her anyway!) So now she's been wrecked and fixed with OEM parts from mexico and repainted (tho needs repainted again because that was probably the worst body shop in the tristate area) and I put a new canvas top on her last year... and she's still as gorgeous as the day I first saw her! But I've also logged 50,000 kilometers on her in the two and a half years we've been together!
There is nothing like cruising around with the top back in my new old bug

tho I'm not saying there is anything like driving my bus or my fasty either. But id hate to see aany of them ever be parked again in their lives!
