Yeh. I think the "rule" for antique is 50 years, except for cars (20 years, IIRC). Anything lesser is "vintage".

My Lexus sc400 is from 96. It likes modern today.

LOL, yeah! I was driving my '95 Camry up until about 3 years ago. It's still on the road. I upgraded to a 2004 Camry! Things are a lot different from 1976, when I had a '64 TR4. That baby was ANCIENT already. I loved her, though. Had to sell her, as I couldn't afford a "Sunday only" car. The longevity difference in cars today and then is just mind-boggling when you think about it. When I was in driver's ed, a car over 100k was extraordinarily rare. Today, that isn't even high-mileage.
