Haha thank you very much. I have put many miles on the porsche so far. I took the car june 24th with 15,070 on it. Now on July 1st it has 16,005. The 400 mile trip from LA to Davis sort of helped.

That trip should burn off all the moistures that accumulated over the years.

Nice car, nice gal, you are set!

Yep it is getting a lot of good use. I feel sort of guilty putting a lot of miles on it, I think I will get over it by driving more. Thanks aviography, the only thing I need now is a college degree( still working on it), a garage and a job.

Had the bike warming up in the driveway for a ride, as I was about to put my helmut on a neighbor approached and said "hey, what's going on - you having a mid-life crisis" I said, well, if having fun is a crisis then I guess, yeah, I am.

5 years later, first day I roll up in the P-Car - same freakin' neighbor in my driveway. "Hey - you having ANOTHER mid-life crisis"? Nope - still enjoying the same one. Same goes for today.

Enjoy living - what other people think is truly of trivial concern.
My "mid life" also stared early...when I was 23. It continues today at more than double that age!

Bought my first Porsche at age 29, lifelong car nut so there is no connection between cars and my age.

If I was gonna have have a proper mid life crisis it would include girls half my age, not sports cars

The problem with finding girls half your age is that they usually cost more than cars in the long run.
