      M Rod I'm 24 years old and this is my all time favorite car. I love this car to death. I also love the Miura, the 300SL, the 250 GT, the Dino 246 GT, the 65 Impala, the 67 Impala, the Shelby Cobra 427 S/C...I could keep on going. I also love the LP670, the SLS AMG, the Aventador, the V12 Vantage and the Noble M600. To put it simply, I love cars irrespective of when it was made or how large the engine is.
      I remember when I first saw the 250 GTO...10 seconds was all it took and it was my all time favorite car. I think the reason why my generation has a fascination for all things modern is quite simply because we've never been exposed to these cars, we never grew up seeing cars like the 250 GTO or anything I list. We grew up seeing Skylines and Lambos. I think you'd be surprised how many people my age do love these cars. That said, you're right...far too many don't even know about these amazing cars. My generation aren't the brightest.
