Without even seeing the ad, I know the one you're referring to! I've noticed the same one in Car&Driver, and I'll bet there are a lot more car mags that are running it too. It made me smile more than a Bugeye Sprite. :D

That ad is funny to me because many years ago I was getting quotes for car insurance and Geico would not insure any of my other 3 cars based on the fact that they could not insure my '62 Sprite. They offered no reason other than they had no price listings for such a odd antique. That was 25 years ago. The car was only 26 yrs old then. Hagerty is the way to go.
