I'm wondering if the "mythical" qualities that people laud in titanium frames is the same after six years. Is it enhanced? Does it somehow diminish over time? I have no idea, since I've never owned a high end frame for that long.

Over the long term, titanium frames gain approximately 1.3% of mythicalness per year, but the exact rate depends on the age of the owner. Studies show that for owners under 65, the mythicalness actually
drops rapidly, and is no longer detectable after a few years.
