      His plan is probably to put it away for 40 years and see if it's as valuable as a first gen.

      My grandfather was 83 years old walked into a Pontiac dealer and bought a Supercharged Bonneville GXP. I asked him if he knew what he bought... he turned to me and simply said: "Mike... I walk slow so, I minus well drive fast...".

      True story.

      He passed away 1 year later....

      Good for him! I could only dream of living that long and still be able to get around, let alone drive!
      I am not useless, I can still be used as a bad example!

      He's probably planning on handing it down to his children some day.
