I don't even lust after original cars anymore. I want to save those for the guys who enjoy that. My drooling is clean no rust shells!
I think the desire for all original cars comes from back in the day when it was hard to bring a car back from being hacked up. When my Dad and I was looking for my first car that is all he would look at, and I get it. Back when 100k miles was a death sentence for a car. Now I don't even really care about mileage, just if it is going to make me do a lot of work on it.
