From my experience, a small minority of today's teens are still interested in cars but from a very different perspective than my generation (last of the baby boomers). Today's teens that are interested in cars seem to be more influenced by it's status factor than it's actual abilities. I can understand that, how many actually wrench on cars or could point out an air filter housing. For that matter how many adults under 40 could do the same? Think about everything else at their disposal today vs. 20 plus years ago, do they really need a car to interact socially? A vehicle is still a necessity for some (work, school) unless their parents cave and drag them everywhere. I hate to say it but I agree with the CEO, the market is a changin'.
