Or is it simply the aura of the 88-99 is finally starting to feel as the 73-87 once did on me. But I feel as if lots of other people are now out for the old squares. Yes I'm saying the 88-99 is starting to be ugly for me. I know I'm not the only one having this love affair change. I'll definitely take a interior from a 87 over a 88 any day of the week with everything that breaks on the interior of the 88.

I can totally relate.
When I first saw the "new for '81" front end, I didn't like it so I hurried and bought an '80.
Similarly, when I saw the new GMT400 models, I didn't like them so I hurried and bought an '87 (which I still have).
My dad used to tease me. He'd say "....you would have seen the 55 Chevy's, not liked them and bought a '54!!
