I'm proud to say my last 3 cars happened to be on this list. My TL and 2 Subaru Legacies.

I was thinking the thing. With all the electronics in these cars, it just means more stuff to break. And odds are, the heat will get to it.

And I agree that restoring a car like these newer ones will be more difficult that what it's worth. I mean just try to find an old navi screen that is 20 yrs old!!! I hardly think so.. So I think the old timers idea of restoring cars will be a dimishing hobby over the years. I think it already is beginning to happen actually..
