      As much as single men under 30 have always loved these cars, I'd suspect the average age has always skewed older.https://twitter.com/TomBevanRCP/status/1121393168900132864 …

      The funny part of this story is that the average age of buyers is 51. https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/2019/04/25/dodge-challenger-camaro-mustang-sports-cars/3495485002/ …

      What was your first car? 1st I drove (early 90s): my dad's 1977 red Chevy Caprice Classic, which he bought used from a friend's grandmother. 1st owned: new green 1996 Mercury Mystique, which my wife & I bought when starting my job (for $0 down, which was all the money I had).

          Still proud of getting a car for no money down, which I accomplished by having a Ford credit card for 5 years in college & law school. The Mystique (basically the Ford Contour) was my attainable-dream car at the time, a midsize sedan that wasn't as cumbersome as the Caprice.

          First driven: my mom's early 1970s Volkswagen Super Beetle. I learned firsthand this car will not float. First owned: 1982 Buick Skyhawk. Ordered shortly before college graduation.

          Hey Prof. In case you weren’t sure, I’m sure you are, a 1982 Buick Skyhawk won’t float either.

          1963 Dodge pickup with a hole in the floorboards and a brake master-cylinder that had to be refilled regularly or the pedal would hit the floor. Paid for it hauling trash from local gas stations.

          1990 - I paid $100 for my cousin’s old (80?)T-Bird. No A/C and the driver’s window wouldn’t go down. Good times in summer. I loved that car.

          First driven: 1984 Buick Regal- my late grandfather’s car but only had it a few months before trading it for my uncle’s 1986 Saab 900. I loved that car and kept it until 2002. First owned: Mint green 1993 Ford Taurus. Had a sticky throttle so car idled at 45mph. Hated it.

          1980 Chevy Chevette - 2 door hatchback with manual transmission and no A/C. (note: I live in TX) I got it when I graduated High School in 1983. I had to teach myself how to drive a stick before I could go anywhere. It was a beating of a vehicle, but I can still drive a stick.
