I know! The cost of a tune up and oil change alone would be more than an average person's house payment. It's ridiculous. They are great to look at and fun to drive but in the end, they are a money pit. Not for me. If I were rich, I would have a huge collection of antique muscle cars. Now there are some cars you can work on and that won't cost you an arm and a leg to upkeep (other than storing them).
