Yes and no? I'm also of '85 vintage, and while I prefer 90s stuff to the cars of today, there's nothing since the smog era I lust after. There's a handful which maybe come close, but would at best maybe be a better fifth car than first or secon d. The really cool stuff is from the 60s and before. What stuff were GenXers buying? I don't think it was the 80s stuff they would have grown up with. I don't think boiling it down to generational differences is necessarily the straightest line to what's popular.
