Which winery is that? I know I've been there- I recognize the silo. But I cannot remember the name...

I highly suspect there's a lot more 911 drivers in their 40s and 50s, however, they probably not hanging out on this forum much!
Surprising in what sense?

I agree with you that there are far more owners in the higher brackets. 60s is way under-represented here.

61. '09 TT now.
Always regretted not buying this one back in 1966 when I was 17 (came within a hair of buying it from a friend), then waited til '93 when I got my first.

Well was surprised we had more ppl in 30s than 50s.

I guess not so surprising, as probably most 911 owners in their 30s hangout around here, while a lot of ppl in their 50s and 60s don't!
