MID370 07-21-2009 07:45 AM

51 when i get my first Z, and no, its not my mid life crises........thats next year when we pick up a convertible Stang in Chicago and travel route 66 to vegas, or maybe I should change that to a 370 roadster.

I will be 50 next week and it IS my mid life crisis car :)
My first car was a 1976 AMC Pacer, then I bought a 69 El Camino after high school. I have been driving company cars since 1983. This is the first car I have bought for myself since 1978.

^^ Could be worse.. you two could be driving the "ultimate salt-n-pepper mid-life crisis car" which is of course the dreaded Corvette.

Got it on my 18th Birthday! so technically bought it when i was 17... which i do believe is the youngest so far...AND THE YOUNG GUNS TAKE THE LEAD!:tup:

*And im posting this here so i dont have to later*

"No I am not spoiled, I do not get everything I want. I am still a kid compared to the rest of you and no i did not work my *** off for this car. I got a large sum of money from the passing of my father (R.I.P. Bill Nelson 1939-2003) and i would much rather have him in my life than a 41k 370z. Im not trying to justify anything, im just trying to save myself from slander. I am going into the military and aspiring to be a Navy seal so I am trying to give back to my country. I hope you all can understand."

Too bad.....You lost a lot of good years there! Having a company car gives you the perfect reason to add a toy car to the stable.. 25 co. cars during my Tenure as a Honda Exec., but 57 others that I've bought...All fun and interesting.. The 370 is one of the best..

Ever hear of the expression "Once a man, twice a child"? It's a saying I came across years ago when living in the province of Newfoundland.

20 years of age, saved some money for about a year, paid a good lump sum and financed the rest through the in-house financing. Now I'm broke.

:icon18:This is definitely a classy forum...people actually referencing material from Shakespeare.

From Hamlet, Act 2 Scene II, Rosencrantz says to Hamlet about Lord Polonius:

"Happily he's the second time come to them; for they say an old man is twice a child."

Turning 50 in November. Just a birthday present to myself. It's my 3rd Z, my first being a 1972 240 Z when I was 22. The color was that blue/silver, I put on a Bob Sharp air dam, true spoke wheels with knock off caps, blacked out head light lens, window tint, louver on the rear window and an a## kickin stereo. I wish I could find a picture of it and post it, she was a beauty.
