In Reply to: Proof vintage cars are a better deal than audio. posted by Al Nico on April 21, 2011 at 05:15:19:
and you'll get a completely different answer. Used to restore old English and German sports cars back in the early 90s. Machining tools, lubes, welder, air compressor, etc. It adds up fast. Not to mention old car parts!
Suffered through a house fire caused by a vintage Karmann Ghia to the tune of $1/4M.
Been to that mountain and came back - with some soot on my face. Audio is just fine by me these days. Much lower cash outlay for the hobby.
Cheers,
