Grew up with ‘60s muscle cars and fell in love with raw power and speed. These days, the technology has made it so a ‘sedate 6-cylinder sedan” can perform like the muscle cars of yore and with higher reliability - like to have some spare ponies under the hood, tires that grip like a Democrat holding an EBT card, and handling dynamics that allow some severe movements with control. Old enough to not want to use all of the above, but still enjoy knowing they are on tap.
Many times I've been yakking cars with fellow boomers and we end up confessing to being amazed at how quick some of the new "daily drivers" are. To a man, we'd love to be able to turn on the time machine and take our long-gone muscle cars for a drive, but none of us would want to use them as daily drivers these days!

Cars have never been built better or been more reliable. The up content is insane.
At the same time, how many cars today have the SOUL of a Goat or a Judge or Camaro or old Corvette. Those old cars really had SOUL. Modern cars are almost antiseptic by comparison.
