What Rich Boomers buy when they don't know about Art

"As baby boomers approach 60, some have decided it is time to have the cars they craved when they were 16. The boys who wanted to burn rubber in high school do not covet red cars from Italy or green ones from Britain, but Plymouth 'Cudas from Detroit wearing Plum Crazy paint. By now, the thirst for big-engine GTO's and Road Runners is so strongly rooted in the collector world that it may no longer be appropriate to call it a muscle car craze."

From the NYT.

So when I turn 60 I am going to buy the bike I craved when I was a teenager - a BMW R100GS. Oh pooh, I already have one.
