I may have a few gray hairs, but that doesn't slow me down!!!!
Dont worry if you have an opentop Z, you won't have any hair left and nobody will notice your gray hairs.

OK, not the oldest but I'm definitely at or near "mid-life" -- of course that is simply a chronological measurement -- my wife reminds me (frequently) that I am indeed still a kid -- usually when I'm on the XBox playing Forzza III

An unscientific observation -- seems like a lot of us "older folk" like topless cars......and my hair ain't EVER gonna blow off (thanks Mom).....

A 50ish year old man complimented my Z the other day. That was the first time in my life someone complimented my car. I respected him, he has good taste.
Amen.

Well I guess I'm going to be at the top of the list for seniors who own Z's. I'm 66 and did the bolt-on installs myself. Stillen G3's, CBE, Berk HFC, Modshack DIY oil cooler and H&R 10/15mm spacers. Took it out for a spirited 50 mile drive this afternoon and nothing failed. Weather here was sunny and a brisk 60 degrees.

Great! We 55 plus guys can pat ourselves on the back. Sometimes it's not real easy to "swim upstream" and drive a car that's arguably not "age appropriate." Nice to see there's a decent sprinkling of us here.

Yea for older men! hehe...

I'm not sure my car's very age appropriate nor family appropriate (3 kids) for me either, but that doesn't stop me

Nothing wrong with that...I just know that in about another 10 years..anything I would tattoo or pierce, is NOT going to be in the same place as it was before. LOL!! (gotta <3 gravity)

I need to get off this computer..I've spent more time here today reading your guys' posts than I have since I joined. Good rainy day activity I guess!
