It's dead because the late 80s and 90s was a revolution for the aftermarket car scene, The problem is all the advances that were made by guys in their garages and shops during that time are now factory installed on most cars. The idea of a car scene is pretty much dead and as such no one cares about it anymore.

The boomers didn't do engine work to their cars, they didn't do suspension work. Hell they didn't jack shit to their cars, And it's the same now that they are older. They pay others to work on their cars and then don't even drive them. They tow them.

Just flying in from another board but I'm with you there. Sometimes we just grow up with tastes that are incongruent with the current styling fad. Give me 3k and I'll come back with an ancient, rotting land-yacht before I spend it on a decent-shape Civic. Anything beyond power windows and cruise control is unnecessary garbage that turns driving into an experience akin to doing the laundry. Read that as the fox and the grapes if you want but I think new cars suck.

I think it will get more polarized. Tesla is alive and well with their iCars, but there is also that faction that wants little to no electronics.

I think Millennials are inclined to drive your modest cars and subcompacts. Rarely do you see a millennial driving something sporty or driving a muscle, heavier car. Millennials, especially women, are definitely partial to SUVs now, it's all I see on the road.

Younger millennials also love these 4-cylinder econoboxes, like Fords and Hondas. Lots of college kids show love for Mustangs and coupes, but then again it could just be an age thing so I don't know. I definitely see more 2doors around the campus than one would expect, especially since lots of those drivers aren't carfags.

Follow your dreams, anon. But don't be a faggot in the process. I started out in a 1990 chevy celebrity, the cars I purchased after got progressively older.

Pic related.

Guess what car you should've bought 10 years ago?
>Integra Type-R

Supras have never lost much value. I looked at the prices for those 15 years ago and they weren't reasonable then. Still aren't.

Yeah they certainly were ahead of the game on pigfat AWD sports cars. Gorgeous looking 90s car but what a beast.

At least boomers kept their cars original instead of adding rice and swapping shit you faggots do. These cats will not be worth as much

Yfw I'm 18 and own a classy '08 328i coupe, 68k on the odo. You're mostly right though, most of the kids my age only care about how loud they can make their '04 Chevy 1500

Uber will have partnered up with Google by then and the streets will be filled with driverless rideshare cars that are little more than small rooms with pay-to-use apps like those ziosk things at Chili's. If manually driven cars are still legal then they'll be taboo.

Really Gen X fags are more into 80s hatchbacks and late 70s modded cars.

Millenials are the ones that are into 90s Japanese sports cars and tuners.

Maybe late millenials (born in the mid to late 90s) will latch on to retro muscle cars, driving around the V8 Camaros, Challengers, Mustangs, and some rarer ones like the SS and GTO.

Or they'll be Teslafags.

But you fags will definetly be riding the 90s dick because its what you're riding now and its too perfect to get off of.
