If you have to ask, then, yes, you are too old. ;)

In my case I have a friend that has a Lambo ,.. tells me the same thing about my Nismo.

I'm 58 yrs old, in 1994 I bought my first Z a 300ZX, in 2009 my 1st 370Z Sport and last year before I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer I bought my 2016 Nismo. I do not care what people say ... so this year I'm going to enjoy it.

BTW, people do not pay my bills!

You know I'll chime in again.

Thing is most people work from a early age. Mortgages, kids, food on the table and the list goes on. Having a nice car is NOT a priority for 99% of people and there are other more important things up on the list.

When someone says "mId lIfe cRisSis" it pisses me off. So you're making fun of a man or woman who worked their *** off to support their kids through uni, pay off their mortgage and now that they have the disposable income and time you're busting their balls? Right makes sense. Then you look at what they drive... I mean I don't care what you drive, but if you're going to dish out stupidity then I won't feel bad when you're told off.

Mid life crisis? What crisis? I have disposable income and like cars/motorcycles. I am fortunate enough to get a good education and more importantly a good job off the bat, not many people have this luck and their life circumstances are more daring and they need to allocate funds to necessities only.

I remember when I bought my Z and I rolled into the Z dealership to grab stuff. I bought mine second hand private, not new, I needed some new lugnuts. Anyway, I roll up in the parking lot and a salesman says "nice car, daddy buy it?" I was going to punch his teeth down into his throat so that he could enjoy some chicklets. You don't get to make brash statements when you do not know someone. I told him that his mom bought it for me for being a good side fling. His face went red and told me to get off the lot, I told him to suck it and proceeded to parts.

All in all, your money, your rules. Enjoy whatever car you want whether it be a Z, Ferrari, Porsche, Stang, Miata, Mini or Beetle. I have more respect for those who buy what they want and rock it with confidence.

The only time that you are too old for a Z is when you're in the grave.
Of course, at that time it's not a matter of age.

Taking a dirt nap. Or when your expiration date has expired.

Your health record has been cancelled. That's when I'll be too old for a Z. :tup:

My dad is 53, I am 19, I got my car 3 years ago and he loved it so much. 1 year later he got a white 2018 Z. and he has done a few mods, nothing like mine but some stuff none the less. I love cruising with my old man and going to the mountains to rip. trust me, never too old.

Nice 11 year old thread. :D

Never really understood 'am I too old for...' questions re vehicles. Can you afford it? Do you like it? Can you get in and out of it? Can you still drive it safely? Do you have fun with it? If yes, then you are never too old for it! Life is too short to worry about what other people think. As long as you are not hurting anyone else, do what makes you happy.

Nope. Not too old. I'm 65 and own both a 300ZX and a 370Z. Never wanted a Vette... But I will admit, there are some young punks driving Z's, but that's the same with Mustangs, Camaros and Challengers. Always bigger, better and faster...

The only drawback is sometimes nearly have to fall out of mine to get out of it!!

just have to add, I have gotten so many laughs out of this thread...
:rofl2:

Bunch of old farts. :driving:

:wtf2:

When's the last time you looked into a mirror. :rofl2:

:icon18: I avoid all mirrors
I haven’t had a haircut or trimmed my beard since before we were at your place :roflpuke2: I’m a mess!

Yes, of course you're too old, send it to me and I'll put it in my Z stable where it can frolic around with my N1SM0 Z
