Absolutely. I was getting so bored with cars, I had no intention of buying one until my Civic wore out (which was a couple hundred K away when I traded it). Then... the Gen5 Camaro came out and I knew I would own one - it just took until retirement to do it since I needed my Civic for cheap travel.

Generally, the customers don't demand anything special from the auto makers, so they don't get it. Just like with our political leaders... we settle.
