Putting a bit of perspective on that, There was no way I could have afforded a new $20k IROC back when I graduated high school in 1989. Instead, I wanted a 15-25 yr old muscle car that I could afford.

Back in 1989, a 1969 model was a 20 year old car. In 2018, a 1998 LS1 Z28 or T/A is a 20 yr old car. Seems about right that kids would be buying these cars.
