The 6 Most Overrated Classic Cars From the 90’s by Gearheads
Old cars that were never that great people pay too much for
People are keeping their cars for longer than ever before. The automotive experts blame high prices, chip shortages, record high interest rates and better made cars. They’re deflecting from the sorry, stunningly ugly options manufacturers offer that nobody is excited about.
We keep our old cars because new cars are soulless. It’s never made less of difference which manufacturer and model you buy.

Gen Z isn’t buying the new Hyundai either. The 5-year-old used VW from Carmax can’t hold a candle to the excitement of buying a classic money pit from Facebook Marketplace. On YouTube car influencers show off their classic rides modded to the point they’re almost unrecognizable.
