So I'm turning 30 in a few weeks

Carlito's Way · 05-13-2008, 02:54 AM

and of course with that comes the whole omg I'm turning 30 and I haven't done crap or accomplish anything in my life!!!!

But anyway this thread is not about that. I've been wanting to do something great and exciting for my birthday. I thought about going skydiving but turns out I'm a bit too heavy to go. So tonight while looking at car videos on Youtube this idea came to mind: Porsche Rental: Rent a Porsche 911 GT3 in New York (NY / NYC, The Hamptons, NJ, CT and PA)
Why not rental an exotic for a day or two. My birthday falls on a Saturday so it would be perfect. What do you guys think? Would this be a waste of money or just say fvck and just do it.

In my life I haven't travel much or done many exciting things so I figured why the hell not. But another side of me says just save that money for a trip to Europe at the end of the year.

So what's your opinion my fellow Civic owners

10 years ago, if u would have told me I'd be celebrating my 30th birthday someday, I would have laughed in ur face. I was sure there was NO way I was making it this far.

Glad I did tho

yeah i feel the same way. i mean i havent done crazy things or anything like that. but when your 20 you dont think that far ahead. i remember my life was school, living at home for free, part time job, sex with the gf, video games...now is full time work....well more like 50-60 hours a week. no gf. mortgage. cant stand video games. no sex in 4 months....yeah life sure changes as you get older.....

SoCal07Si · 05-13-2008, 03:11 AM

lol...4 months? That needs to change dude!

But at least u got ur life on the right track. I've talked to my grampa and some1 else (i cant remember) about turning 30 and they both told me that their 30's were the best times of their lives.

So thats something to look forward to.

oh yeah thats true. i've heard the same thing from a few people. they all say the same. 30s will be your best years. i sure hope so.

4 months lol thats nothing in my book. ive gone much longer times without it. but to be honest right now i dont want a gf/woman/booty call. im busting my ass at work. trying to get ahead in the company and also make some good money so i can finally start enjoying my life.

I Vtec, do you? · 05-13-2008, 03:23 AM

Expensive. If you can afford to do that for your bday, I'd say you're doing well for 30!

black05tj · 05-13-2008, 09:05 AM

Personally, unless you can get some track time with the car, I think you're wasting your money renting a high performance car in the states. Most places I've been to, you'll never be able to get that car half way through 2nd gear before you'll be running down some slow poke doing 50 in the left lane on the interstate.

I'd take the trip to Europe. Then, if you want, maybe rent something and head for the Autobahn?

30 ain't nothing. It is kinda weird to realize that I used to think people my age were old, but it's nothing to freak out about. I don't know why so many people seem to get hung up on it.

dude no sex in 4 months that gives u the right to do anything lol! Rent the car and take the trip to europe live life...enjoy it! ur only 30 one day u'll be 60 don't sweat it
