By no means am I saying the new stuff is a replacement for the old iron but it's nice to have something modern that does everything so well. The ideal situation IMO is to have both if possible. When nostalgia sets in drive the old car. When you want convenience and all the amenities that the newer muscle have to offer, drive that.
It's nice to have choices.
