Who knows? Ask the guys spending $30-40k plus on front wheel drive cars from the 90's that don't even come close to a base Civic today.
I get the whole Nostalgia thing, but does it it not wear off within 10min. of driving an Element? Its not like you're getting into an old Ferrari, Porsche, or even a Vette. Time has not made it anything more than what it is. I'm not yearning to once again drive a Dodge Omni. Just because its old and in good shape, doesn't mean its good.

I had an Omni GLH Turbo that was pretty fun. Just sayin. 😉
I had plenty of fun in a 76 Datsun B210. Wouldn't want to own one of those again.

Wow, you really are retired. I'll give you my dad's number and you can trade stories. He traps them and drives them 30 miles away.

They’re basically rats with fuzzy tails. For every one you see there’s 50 you don’t see.

Next off the Island.
I had one of these. it ran forever with no issues.
Mine never left me stranded, but I always had a Chilton's manual in the back seat. Drove it home from Buffalo after freshman year with a case of Castrol oil stopping every 50 miles to refill as needed. Sold that and did a big upgrade to a Citation X-11. Wouldn't want to own one of those again either.

Had an omni - just the regular version. Fun to drive. we'd load it up and drive around people in the snowy hills of northern NY to ski.
also had a horizon. cause Boonton.
