Porsche 911 Turbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I completely agree - One can't afford a nice Sports car of any sort when you're in your 20's, 30's (Most of us ) so you work hard and then can afford a nice car later in life. So I too hate the term

I've never understood why it is considered a crisis to finally be able to afford that which you have always desired. My pick changes on a daily basis but lately it teeters between a Viper or a GTR. Or

I can't decide between 930 Turbo 911, 964 Turbo 911, or 993 Turbo 911. It was have to go into longggg serious internal debates haha.

Realistic, probably an early 70s Challenger. Love those cars.

If money is no object, then an SL65 AMG

That is an SL65 AMG on steroids. I love that car and very much into the new AMG models these days. Great choice.

Whatever you wind up with, it needs space for a humidor.

I would go vintage muscle car myself. When it hit my 40s I figure out which one I need to pine after

I guess if I really thought about a car that I would really want from my childhood that could be unique and mine i would chose either:

T-bucket

Or a 1932 Ford 3 window Deuce Coupe, I would have to think of the style though. Fenders or no fenders and throw some fat Mickey Thompsons on the back and have a hot rod.

Another car I always wanted was from the movie Phantasm. A Black 1972 Plymouth Cuda with a 440 six pack and the pistol grip shifter.

One day, I will have one of each, Lamborghini and a Porsche. Dream big, start small.

I wouldn't really consider it a MLC car, but I would upgrade to a 996/997 turbo, GT3 or GT2.

Air cooled Porsches are way out of my price range now, and I'm not sure I would buy a Corvette twice.

I think this thread went from mid life crisis to "I just won the lottery". That or ya'll have a much higher disposable income than me hahaha.

I had an "early life crisis" (30) so I bought a red 6mt BMW M3, I'm thinking the next logical step would be Porsche.

Have to go with one of the Hero cars of my childhood, Honda NSX-R or an FD3s RX-7 Spirit R.

HT Monaro GTS wouldn't go astray either.

My dad went through 2 mid life crisis'. The first one when I was 17, he bought a 1986 red convertible corvette which I got to enjoy while I lived at home. He went through his 2nd crisis 10 years later & bought a new 2006 corvette & I humbly received the old vette as my dad is extremely generous ... & it was an ageing money pit. So now that I'm nearing the so called mid life crisis age, I'm happy to say I'm good to go. One thing my brother & I always say, a vette (or any mid life crisis car for that matter) is much cheaper than therapy.

The 2006 (actual car)

Edit - I knew I was eligible for a mid life crisis when I was driving the 2006 2 summers ago & my thinning hair was whisping in the wind & I realized that when people look at me, they no longer look like I'm borrowing my dads car, they think it's mine ... that's a reality slap. frown.gif

Just love the 60's early 70's muscle! I think the Darts were my all time favorite. Take the lightest car put the in the biggest engine, find a straight stretch and hit it! Had a '68 with a 318 it was plenty quick but a Hemi..... My oh my!

Money's not the key - education, and the patience to wait for the right car for the right price are most important. And I haven't even hit mid-life yet!

Past the MLC, but own a custom Harley Chopper, and drive a BMW 6 series, also own a Chevy truck.

However, if we are dreaming...I want a Ferrari. The LaFerrari would be nice!
