This may not be an appropriate question and if you don't want to answer, don't but I am curious to know the approximate age of some of you. When I read the general forums, I seem to get the impression that most of the people there seem young, early twenties or so. Well I'm 32 and this is the first time in my life that I could afford a car like this, new. I don't know how someone so young can. Wish I could have. Any way I was just curious to know.
P.S. I just notice that I was the last person to post the last three topics, okay I don't have a life (except my obsession with my car).

I'm gonna be 22 in March. I got my tour when I was 20. It was a gift..if I had to buy a car on my own I'd still be riding the bus.

27 (well 28 in less than a month) and feel younger (that's what I like to think anyways). Can afford my car cuz I choose either 1. buy a new car or 2. move out. So I am stuck here for another year or two max. Originally posted by Not Jap:

30 years old and sometimes feel older, what with work stress etc. When I was 19 the Taurus SHO was the car I wanted. I could afford the payment but not the $3600/ year insurance at the time. When the SVT Contour came out, I knew it was my turn to buy a true sports sedan without having to mortgage my life.
Can't wait for more track time!!

Well, I guess I'll check in as the senior citizen of the group...44, yet I don't really feel old yet (kind of funny how you thought your parents were ancient when they were 44)
