In my area, the majority of "twenty somethings" not only don't own any sort of car at all, a lot of them don't even know how to drive any car nor do they have a driver's license. They don't know what a clutch is, can't change a tire, and couldn't syphon gas out of your tank if their life depended on it. I haven't heard the old "is that car real" for years now. Instead, I hear "what is that?" The chance that those kids are going to want to buy any stick-driven, high performance roadster, real or replica, in twenty years is pretty much zilch.
