I'm also on the younger end of the forum, so the older 80s and 90s lugged race bikes don't move me. I want a classic, put together look with any of the modern materials.

I'm on the younger side of the forum too...atleast I used to be when I first joined...but I'd kinda agree. I love the look of many of the bikes posted but I don't think I'd care to ride one.
I did own a 1984 Trek 760 which was a wonderful bike, but these days I'm on the hunt for something aero, disc, and comfy which can take 30-32 tires. I'd probably ride something like that for a good long while.
I've been through a few bikes lately, but I honestly hate the process of getting set up on and dialed in on a new bike. As much fun as it is to tinker, sometimes it's nice to just have something you can get on and go ride without thinking about it.
