Agreed. Making car payments is also extremely lame.

The closest I can offer up is my '83 VW Rabbit GTI I had Summer of '01. I was born in '82.

Other than my Lincoln ('88) all my cars are older than me. '83 Accord, '78 Grand Am, '69 Beetle, '69 Mercedes 250. My newest car was a '91, and they probably won’t get much newer. The Accord is probably MORE reliable than a brand new car.
