Yeah, there seems to be an inverse relationship between cars becoming more capable vs. fun to actually drive. In the Porsche forums, I’d often see the advice to potential buyers, “Buy the newest one you can afford,” but I’d wonder if the better advice would be “Buy the oldest one you can afford to keep on the road.”
That being said, while I complain about current BMWs and Porsches vs. the ones I’ve owned from last decade, there are owners of BMWs and Porsches from 50 years ago that snicker.
