Jay Leno is wealthy and can afford any car that he desires, so I wouldn't necessarily take his statement as a measuring stick. If you are fortunate and have gone the typical route for success (college, sacrifice, work) perhaps by age 30 you would have at least identified the car of your desires. The great cars of the 1960's and '70's were long gone by the time I reached 30, but GM still had some good ideas floating around. Actually my savings grace came after age 30 when GM had the guts to muster up some modern greatness. I took full advantage of this, knowing that the great power and performance would not last. At this writing, I am glad that I did.
