I guess it's subjective and we can only define the word old school based on our own personal perceptions.
I'm 19 this year..
I usually see older models of cars as 'old school'. I see the 'old school' as a synonym for just old? Like my friend asked me what a particular car was and I said it's a Supra and he goes 'A Supra?' and I replied 'old school one, MKIII'.

I think there's that whole we're better than you because our old school is even older feeling. Feeling superior because for you, old school predates someone elses old school.
Like, kids these days might talk about back in the PlayStation days and might refer to it as 'old school' a bit later on when the rest of us who are older will think pffft and remember back to the 4bit fat gameboy, 8-bit nintendo and ataris etc. Back when it was all done through cartridge. That's what I feel old school is but that's because I was old enough to experience it.
I think it's frustrating for people because younger people will think something newer is 'old school' and when they call (for example) 80's cars old school --
they're not just missing out on earlier cars, for the people who grew up then it's an ENTIRE ERA.
I don't know if I said that well enough but yeah.. my 2 cents Smile

im in shock, hes so right its not funny
