I knew I wanted a Porsche in the worst way, so I dreamed of finally having my own mid-life crisis so I could get one. I've been waiting all my life for a crisis like this. Isn't it great to be a 42 year old bald guy with enough cash to drive this incredible car?"
My boxster sure makes me happy!

At 45, my replies to the mid-life crisis line are:
A) I've always been a convertible guy - this is just a lot nicer version of the Fiat X1/9 I had at 20.
B) This is a birthday gift from my wife because I agreed to go to work and earn a living each day. I love this car and I love my wife.
Frankly - this is more like a mid-life celebration than a crisis.
