Sounds impressive to me. I don't want to debate the validity, because I believe it to be true. My question is as follows; is this a really big deal and does it say very much?

Hi,

I do question the 60%, but believe it's a high percentage whatever it is. This is probably more true of any Premium or Sports Car, than say a LeSabre of Galaxie 500. I suspect that the percentages are even higher for Lambo, Ferrari, Jaguar and such.

But, these things didn't just stay on the Road. They were maintained with countless man-hours and $$$ to keep them on the Road. Says more to me about their Owners than the Manufacturers...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
