Why I prefer old cars, to the late models.

They are easier to modify and improve.

Case in point: I'm driving my company's van and had a tailgator
issue. Now the fix for tailgating is a simple mod, you put a solenoid
on a tap from the transmisssion cooler and run it to the exhaust
manifold. A button gives a momentary solenoid open and a smoke blast
emits from the tailpipe deterring the tailgator.

Catalysts make this a lot less effective.

Thereby demonstrating that people claiming modern cars are harder to
work on don't know what they're talking about.  Just run it downstream
of the catalyst (if you really feel this is a useful mod).
