I love the old style the best. The boxy style is what attracts the eye, not so much the performance. (However, that's also what catches us petrolheads the most)
I love how older cars look when it comes to their features and designs. You can tell in these times that car companies didn't care so much as in money but to get people to buy the cars and commute more. And they did it with style (Despite the stupid SMOG and MOT laws in some countries....).
Now I think car companies cannot make a good profit anymore, so they go with making sure they're broken by the time you buy them business.
Which, let's face it, is ruining the automotive world.
