That's good, but hey, the designation 'Vintage' starts with the Latin (Fr) word for 'wine' not chariots.

Traveler, I would like to meet you at a So Cal meet someday. I go to them once in a while. Do you?

Why didn't you say hi at the memorial?
I won't be going to the Megameet. It's mega traffic too. I did it two years ago when we went to Big Bear.

Still, it's a great question in the philosophical sense.
What makes one vintage is a spirit of comraderie; a tolerance for the views of others; an appreciation for the S2000 in terms of the sports cars of the past; the occasional use of spell-check, and; a few minor aches and pains that don't slow us down.
Feel free to add to the list.

I was very happy to find this forum, as I was beginning to think that most owners, and most members of this site, were 20 or 30-somethings.

May I make a suggestion here?
When welcoming new members perhaps we should avoid TLA's *
*TLA's = Three Letter Acronyms such as VSA. It does not make a new person to this site feel very welcome when we seem to speaking in code.
Just a thought. As I ran into a new owner today and suggested that S2Ki.com was a great resource. As they are a potential Vintage member, it would be a shame if theydid not feel welcome here becuase they did not understand the "TLA" 's.
Just a thought, that I hope is viewed in a constructive light.
