If having a vintage car is someone's priority, and something they're passionate about, and they can afford to make the payments, I think the geriatrics should keep the financial judgement to themselves. I ended up making a career in vehicle dynamics, one which I probably wouldn't have ended up in if not for spending an amount of money on old cars that most people consider to be irresponsible. People should follow their interests if it's within their means... and within your means doesn't have to mean cash.

Vaive, S-dope, PML? Is that you?
FYI, dumb-a$$, this older guy bought his first Porsche in 1971 with my own money. Been doing so ever since, although I did lease a 996 once. Your issues with the older generation are bigger than your monthly payments.
As I said, lighten up.
