It is a cool car. But I do not understand his choice. :)
I had lot´s of cars in the past including one or two dreamcars that I wanted to own for ages. But cars do get boring pretty fast. The best time is the time waiting for them to be yours.
Looking for Dragons Lair 1 or 2, Space Ace, Double Dragon, Robotron and yeah... a Shinobi would be cool, too!

I really don't understand your choice AT ALL, but it's nice that you follow your dreams. :)

I am happy for you bart, and for people that dont understand, i guess its the same for a classic car collector that wants to have a Arcade cabinet, and having to sell one or 2 of his cars for that.

Other car collectors also will not understand that  8)

OMG... I took my driver's test in a car as long as that.. My Mom at the time had a 1978 Ford LTD and it was yellow...  It was hard as hell to parallel park that big long banana/land barge!  LOL

It was our family car all through my childhood/teen years.  :D

Iit’s a choise to make sometimes

For me I know the car wont get boring ,because its not only hobby for me its my first car and my daly driver (if I don’t go by bike).

Also I move around in hobby’s allot
Started whit model trains 10 m2 60 meters of rail complete land scape ,enz.
Than sold it al, time to move on started collecting video game’s, than I was done whit that sold most of the collection started collecting arcade games.
but the last year for me the fun and interested was there no more.
will keep a few for parties .

And now its time for (the first one in) the new hobby,the same with arcade games I only buy one ;D
But if anybody hase a hearse and want to trade for some cabs give me a call :P

What also is fun my dad is crazy about cars and its fun to chat about and work on the car whit my dad.

Sonic1992 love that car also, al the big usa cars are great and the size you get used to
First time I was driving the car I was thinking omg what did I buy bud after a few days of driving I don’t want any thing else only the roads are so damn small.
