    Well they are primarily doing it for the baby boomer generation that are starting to retire now and want to relive their youth and many of them have money to spend. I would expect that there will be others that follow in short time

    So does this mean when I'm 50, Nissan will bring out a retro car looking like an 87 Stanza? Maybe the 2038 Chevy Corsica? That'd be great

    I'd venture to say that you're right when it comes to that being the reason. Still, I remember the ads for the Mustang back in 1994, comparing THAT model to the '64.5. Once that started, it's like every company decided that they needed to bring back their old nameplates, and make them look like the old ones with sharper lines. Granted, the new Dodge Challenger is absolutely beautiful, and the new Mustangs look pretty damn nice (yeah, ban me…), but come on, I thought cars were supposed to look like this by now…

    I thought that is why everyone is doing the retro styling of the new mustang/camaro, cuda...etc. they want to relive their past...they dont have many days left.

    or they were running out of ideas to make cars moe aerodynamic.

    kinda funny huh. we all complain about fuel economy etc...and they bring back square looking cars. why not just drive a bus.
