      Now they're up to their necks in debt and the upkeep is going to start hitting hard.

    This was one of my favorite (non-car) discussions yet! My wife and I share a common hatred for McMansions, and houses dominated by their garage (your old house excepted), and house "Mullets". My only gripe was throwing in the legacy cobras. I would agree that a lot of replicars are bad (e.g., fiero-based kit cars), but a lot of kit cobras are better than the originals in function, and real cobras are un-attainable or too valuable to drive. My first car was a Datsun 280z back in the early 80s, and I'd love one of those 280z-based Ferrari 250 GTO conversions, especially given the suspension and powertrain upgrades that could be done to probably make it outperform the original. Lastly, I'll bet that in 50 years there will be more 200-plus year old Victorians that survive than McMansions (as a matter of percentage currently existing). McMansions are so much garbage materials and construction methods.

    That's interesting the term seems regional - on the west coast, we call them McMansions when they're on a tiny lot and the house covers every possible square foot of it. There's a 25 foot street set back, 5 feet on one side, 10 feet on the other and 2 or 3 story cheap mansion on top - it doesn't need gaudy glue ons - just the 'no yard'. In fact some of those will have windows on the narrow lot side where you can look through several houses.... They've started putting terrible color finishes and stone on the fronts - but the entire house is cheap. Like trailer house cheap.

He purchased a home that did not fit the neighborhood where it was built, and after leaving Portland he tried to sell the home. It took over 4 years to find a buyer. How he came out in dollars and cents I do not know, but that was a perfect example of the wrong house in the wrong place.

    Guys, I'm an architect and I couldn't agree with you more. That "Styrofoam siding" is called "exterior insulation and finish system" or EIFS for short. It is a fine material for something like a strip mall that is going to upgrade the exterior every twenty years by stripping it off and putting new EIFS in its place, but it has no business on buildings that are intended to be in use for many decades. Also, I agree that those complex roof configurations are ridiculous. It adds significant cost when reroofing, and when you consider the the main purpose of a roof is to shed water, those complex roofs generally don't do that well, and have many conditions that can result in water infiltration. The other situation that occurs with some national home builders is that they put some high end finishes in the interior, which catches the buyers eye, but cut corners in the structure and building envelope. Believe me, I spent much time investigating building problems in these homes, some of which resulted in a lawsuit by the homeowner against the builders. And finally, as pointed out, utilities and maintaining these homes gets incredibly expensive.
