Hi,

I'm 52. The Mid-Life Crisis is such a cliche'. The thing that bugs me is that as my hair has grayed, and my equator slightly expanded, I drive my Boxster or Esprit and I see the occaisional looks of younger people, usually women, and can just tell they think I'm mid-lifing. They think I'm driving the sporty car to compensate.

But, they don't realize I've owned and been driving these type of Cars since I was 18 (one of which I still own) - a 34 year long Mid-Life Crisis, OK, I guess that may deserve a look or two...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
