Interesting isn't it. Totally agree with you. I was staying in Santa Monica about 10 blocks back from the ocean a few weeks ago and outside my hotel room one morning was an 70's Buick in average condition. All SUV's there otherwise high end Merc. Audi, BMW and a smattering of Dodge Challenger, Mustang and camaro
