I'd ask how many of them had a Chevelle in their backyard and then follow that up with since they are a dime-a-dozen you'll take it off their hands. I had a bunch of kids with new imports telling me how my car is a dinosaur and a rot box and probably handles like a bag of crap. The real good part is when they go to leave and all I hear is the exhaust and trunk rattling and the cloud of smoke coming from the exhaust. Just remember that at one time even the 55 Chevy was a cookie-cutter like a 87-93 fox body rustang for a good number of years. I bet you could go practically anywhere and run into someone who claims to have had one at some time in their lives. If it is the car that you want, it doesn't matter who thinks it is popular or a piece of crap. Me personally, the only RX7 I ever liked had a 350 Chevy in it with a TH350. I worked on it when was in Highschool as a automotive tech project. If I ever got to do another one you bet your rearend it would be LSX-based with a 6 speed.
