I'm one of those "old guys"...at least on paper.
I've had many coupes since '67. Ten to be exact. Once a car guy, always a car guy. My Dad bought a '66 Ford Mustang just before my 16th birthday and said, "Son, if your gonna' to be irrational about something let it be cars and not women." I got to drive it on the "once a week rule."
I ordered a '07 Habanero Si last Saturday, ...first week in October if no shipping delays!!!
My son turns 16 in December. He's been learning to drive on mom's Accord auto and my '90 Toyota 4X4, 206,000 miles. Just sold that two weeks ago. Been shopping around. He thinks I've ordered a Toyota Prius. The sad look on his face.....priceless. "That's nice, Dad. What color did you finally decide to get?" 3.75 student, plays in the band, braces come off November and he's on the golf team. A good kid and I trust him. Can't wait for the driveway surprise....look what Dad drove home tonight!!! The kid has to learn about irrational things sometime. Right? And the once a week rule....I'm 56 and still car crazy after all these years.
