YMMV. For me that is not a shortcut (although it is a lot less valuable) but a prerequisite. I will like modern technology and I like old style.

The sound of a Ferrari V12 is a big part of its charm.

I drive an old 72 Dodge. Many people re-engine them with a modern engine, but I like the sound, feel, and balkiness of the old engines. Other people do, too, as when I took it to a car show it would draw a crowd when I'd start the engine :-)
