Am I the only one who still likes pop-up headlights?
 
I think pop-ups are cool, I've had 2 cars with them, and I think it's cool having something at the end of the hood to look at while you're driving (kind of like a hood ornament, which kinda helps you "point" the car). This is the main reason I'm dissapointed with the C6 Corvette, they ditched the pop-ups and installed those ugly beady-eyes. They remind me of all the teenagers who take their cheap hatchback and replace their stock headlights with a "kustom" beady-eye kit.

Yes, I happen to think you're stuck in the late 80's or early 90's..


I think this because every bike and car that you think is nice, I thought was cool when I was 10. :lol

I'm not a fan of pop ups on any car. The C6 Corvette looks bad ass. I was also never a fan of the hideaway headlights on the 68 camaro either.

So the bikes you thought were cool when you were 10 didn't have any influence on you?

No.. I was 10.

I don't like the bands I liked then, don't like the cars I liked then.


IMHO, there was a period for about 10 years where every single thing made was hideous and needlessly "loud" looking.

I don't like fluorescent colored bikes, I don't like car headlights on bikes, and I like to see the engine on a bike.


The only thing I liked at 10 that I still like now are boobies and cartoons.

depends on the car.

All pop-up headlights suck when the motor goes.

Agreed.

I'm fine with the pop-ups on my C5 Z06 but I also like the C6 Z06.

I've had cars before with pop-ups and the motor went bad on one...yep it sucked.
