That's a good one.  I'm usually accused of loving my
cars more than I love her.  Which of course is
flagrantly untrue!  I don't think you can love a
car...obsess over them, perhaps...

Not only that, but you are in fact beautifying the
landscape.  Think of how boring the roads would be
with no Imperials, with only Camry's and Malibus and
Accords and Tauri running around in various shades of
brown and blue and grey.  A bright yellow '67 coupe or
a robin's egg blue '58 Sedan or an avocado green '73
may go unnoticed to some drivers in their
psuedo-hypnotic trances, but to others, it will bring
a smile on their face or perhaps a fond memory back to
their minds.
