Personal enjoyment? I'll take any of my old smelly rambunctious V8s any day. A moderate dose of CO is good for ya, probably kills Covid.

Ok. You spend $25K on a HD. I'll spend $10K on a M109R Boss. And then let's race for titles. Nostalgia is cool and all. But it ends when I'm paying more money for inferior, poorly built, slower, unreliable products. But hey, I can direct you to a forum where they do this stuff all the time.
