I recognize, and know about way too many of the suggestions on the !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! today. I suppose having books about Lamborghini's as a child in the early 80's and having subscribed to many car magazines since the early 90's will do that to you.
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
And some of the suggestions... X-90, VehiCROSS, M45, SV-1, and others just make me wonder what the average age around here is...

I know the feeling. It helps that we've done this QOTD what, twice before? In any case, it's good impetus to step your obscure car game up.

I think the age on the FP is radically different with the age of oppo,

Well, the SV-1 was mine. And I'm 15...

Possibly. It's hard to say. But some of the suggestions were pretty well publicized when they were released. Others not so much, and we're sure to see some truly obscure ones come through as well. It just took me by surprise to see some, in my mind, rather mainstream suggestions make it through.

I don't mean to call anyone out specifically. And I am older than the average bear here (nearly 40). But some of these cars (like the SV-1) I have read about and seen for years (or in the case of the SV-1, decades). There are two of them in Tucson (or at least there were, I haven't seen either in a couple of years).

22 here....
But my brain feels like it's 30. I mean hell, I literally love cars no one around me knows about. And my dream is to race 60s and 70s muscle cars in the Trans Am series.

I know I know... just thought I'd point that out... the fact that I know as much as I do about the mid 80s and above is impressive considering I was born in '98...

Agreed. My son was born in '98 and you seem to know more about the obscure cars before his/your time than he does. =)

Didn't we have an average age poll at one point? FP is going to be a lot different, I think. But we came up with an average age for Oppo.

We did. Someone else linked to both results. It's like 25-26.

I always figured the 235 was your age.

You know, I've been wondering about the average age of folks around here. I keep seeing topics about "parent's cars", or school, or what not. And I'm thinking "Holy hell, how old am I compared to these other people?!?"
But it sounds like I am up around your age.

Let's just say I'm a bleeding edge member of Gen X and the very last of the Boomer Babies were leaving the hospital when my mom went into labor.

I'm much younger than you and I know more about forgotten concept cars, experimental vehicles, and preproduction prototypes than I do our own cars. :P
