Just Curious...How many of you vintage 911 owners are under 40?

I'm 37 and own a 1968 911......I rarely see anyone under 40 own or drive a vintage 911........What gives?

It's all trucks, 4 wheel drives, SUVs....ugghhh

I love my P-Car.......

I got mine 4 years ago, when I was 36. I only recently crossed the line into old-man-hood.

But, really what is so unappealing about a P-Car to the younger crowd........I don't get it........Maybe it's because it was their Father's dream car......
