I don't understand who supdork is, but no matter...
My own car is probably your age as well and I think more durable and reliable than newer models. Definitely cheaper to buy and no payment or high insurance to go with it.
But, if I were to buy, or be gifted a car of my own age, it'd be a muscle car like this one. Now, you know my age!

In 9th grade a 12th grader used to pull over the curb and ask if I'd like a ride the rest of the way to school and this is what he drove! Yes, I think the teacher's were scared :)
