About 80% of the ones I see driving around are older (using your measuring system). They just aren't hanging out where you are so you don't believe they exist.
I strongly doubt that anything near 90% are people registering them for their kids.
Go back and look at some of the old threads and the average age of the people buying the 13s is well north of 40.
All in all it is not the "young" persons car that you would believe it to be. Not like Civics where the average age is around 12.
My measuring system is accurate don't knock it! I think what would make sense about older people buying is the level of how senile they become (exponential growth year to year after the age of however old @Tcoat is -30), so when going through the buying process, they don't realize they are buying a Toyota/Subaru instead of that Porsche they said they were looking for.

You can doubt my 90% figure, but it's pretty hard to even want to call that graph relevant/accurate today. You were probably right about those numbers back in 2013/14, but now? I wouldn't be so sure.

TBH Civics aren't even affordable for 12 year old's now because of insurance. It's those G35's people be buying now.
