Does Naples equal out-of-touch senior citizens?

I'm afraid so. Lotsa Caddies, Lincolns and Buicks around here with "that package". A money maker for the dealers for sure.

When I was in Florida I've seen Camrys and Avalons with the formative tops, apparently old people like them, regardless of the model.

Personally I think Toyota, and Nissan in this case, should hunt down the dealers who did this and burn the dealership...

It's amazing what a lot of money and bad taste produces.

That's called the government...

This is limited funding with absolutely no taste.

Not completely - I've posted a couple of pics of Astons before and there's load of every fancy car you can think of. But there's certainly a lot of retirees driving Cadillacs down there.

Naples equals money.
