Newer cars have lost that direct connection feel. Sure they are more powerful, faster, and safer. They all just have a layer of computers between you and the road. Even when you turn driver aids off there are systems running in the background managing diffs, etc. I guess it depends on what you find enjoyable. The one thing for sure is that I do a lot more work on my older car. When new cars now are old cars they are probably going to be a nightmare to keep running.
I vastly enjoy older cars, but I suppose it depends on what you mean by 'older'. To me, it's stuff made before the 1990s. But if I could keep only ONE car, it would be my 2006 Mustang. Not too modern, not too old, and engaging to drive.
Slipping into my various 60's era E36 M3boxes definitely bring a smile and an uncomfortable pants tightness everytime.
