The generation above me (my parents generation) grew up with muscle cars and have no appreciation for import tuners. However, we both have an appreciation for proper craftsmanship among all of the automotive scenes.
I did not develop the connection with the muscle cars, because I only see them in a revived/restored form. They were not an everyday that no longer exists. These cars are being restored to remind them of the days when they roamed the earth.
Saying this, I do not believe that when the civic are no longer a mainstay that I will want to start restoring civics and making them "retro jdm" or "retro rice", but who knows. I believe that unlike the late 70s, 80s and up till now when the current car industry was shadowed by the cars in the 60s and 70s, coming up shortly is a time like the 60s and 70s. SOON! We will have cars that will overshadow those of the recent past. Save your money, because the modding scene will move towards this new vehicle that is coming into the market.
These are the footsteps to exciting times; be prepared!
