    I had a "71 Vega, put 25,000 miles on it. I loved it!!! Then I bought a Chevette NEW , later another. Both were reliable and fun. The Vega and Chevette were maybe $2000. Now a Honda is at least $25000.

    These cars (especially the Pinto/Vega models) were made for a mechanic because if you couldn’t fix them, they stayed in the driveway. I grew up in the 70’s and my cars weren’t more expensive but much more reliable and great fun (240z and the Bug!)

    When I moved to the US in 1972, we brought a brand new Vega with A/C no P/S with bobble wrap plastic seat cover for $38K. We love this Vega so much so my uncle took it to Thailand and paid high importation taxes at 880%.
