"You can put $5000 (or a little more) into an older car it'll be like new and last for many years. Or you can spend anywhere from 15K to 35K for a new one and it'll last just as long."
While not wanting to dissagree with your husband and not knowing what he is calling a classic, there was a time 60s-70s when cars were over when they hit 100k, now 100 just brings down the resale value. My brother is driving a Chevy bronco 91 with 375k on it, still runs good.

when they hit 100kThat's why I said after you put money into it. I have found most people don't care what the speedometer says as long as they know the motor is sound. I was not suggesting anyone just keep driving the thing and it would be ok.
