Today, buying a car means new or virtually new. It means 10 air bags, heated seats, navigation, tires that virtually never go flat, etc
You can't compare prices when the product is incomparable.

Hey!!
Mine never leaked oil and we were able to work on our vehicles unlike the ones today with all the computer chips and sensors. It cost us less to keep our vehicle tuned as we didn't have to take it to a garage to pay to find out what expensive sensor needed to be replaced. My 78 Grand Pix SJ and it's 4 barrel carb was a better built vehicle than the one vehicle I drive today
