Soooo... when somebody says "all the cars in my area are young guys who's parents bought it for them" I call bull shit. All you see is young guys simply because that is the crowd you hang with or the area that you frequent. For every single heavy modded, hard parking showpiece or track prepped race car there are 10 or more basically stock cars being driven to work everyday by men and women 45 to 1,000 years old (like Hum).
I agree with this. If you want a very different perspective than this forum, check out the FT86 subreddit. You'd think every single owner was 18-25 and turbocharging their rocket bunny kits.

Obviously, Reddit skews very young. It's like you said - a matter of your personal perspective.
