Are the most mainstream cars the most exciting?

There's this really great old song by LCD Soundsystem called Losing My Edge that plays like an homage to how things that started off as being cool eventually escalated into set pieces for a never ending contest into who could drop the most obscure names and be into the most seminal and ancient and often unheard of music.

There's definitely dudes trying to do that with cars now. The net nerds have taken it up a notch. If you're really into some obscure 1970s or 1980s supercar, more power to you. If you're just into it because you know one of the 5 guys with some silly looking car nobody bought that would get blown off the road by a modern Taurus, lame.

I love this post! SOOOOOO True!

I snapped this the other day. Looks like a Silver Shadow but not sure what year.

Notice the RH drive. Cool!

This is brand new. If I owned one I would sit in the garage and stare at it for hours. its not the fastest or the quickest, but to me, its a work of art. the cars porportions are perfect to me. long hood thin waist big buttresses. That is a car.
