You are both wrong. Cars overall are designed and built better than they were in the 60's, and imports are better than domestics in general.

You obviously are kidding (I hope). NO car built in the 60's was better than ANY car built today. In the 60's cars had ridiculous 12-month, 12,000 mile warranties, had virtually no safety features and were not remotely sophisticated. The automatic choke was considered a major innovation then.

I love older cars, and have owned a few classics. My family members currently own a 1967 Dodge Charger R/T, a 1970 Dodge Challenger, and a 1955 Chevrolet. Not only are both of our newer Fords light years ahead of any of those cars in every respect, but even our V-6 Ford will do 0-60 faster than all three of the classics (including the 440 Challenger).
