I will say this, I get looks from two types of people, guys who remember
the marque, and young (approx. 10 years old) kids. I love to see the young
kids look and they often say something like "Is that a race car; That's a
cool car" or something like that. There's a young boy across the street
from me that always wants me to "go real fast" as the 70 has the monzda
system on it and sounds "hot" if you wind it out. He loves it. Make me
feel proud, and perhaps these kids will be the ones to bring the "real"
sports cars back. At least they now know what a Triumph is!
