I guess the mid-life crisis is still in tact. 30-45 range seems to be higest so far. :dance:

Mid-life? God.. I hope I make it further than 66. *shrugs* who knows, though. Could get hit on the head with a coconut tomorrow.

If owning a Boxster, or any Porsche for that matter, is a equated to a mid-life crisis, I would venture to guess that there are a lot of people out there who would love to be having a "crisis"!!
I think I heard it here on this forum once..."it is more of a mid-life celebration!"
See, it is all about perspective...isn't it!

MAY THE P.M.L.C.(Porsche Mid Life Crisis) LIVE ON!!
I'm 68,a retired Mech. Eng. , the son of a Motor Mechanic & have owned a lot of great cars over the last 50 odd years, so I guess my mid life crisis started when I was 18.
My big regret is I waited so long to graduate to a P.M.L.C.. Only bought my '03 Box last month and love it to death. My wife however tells everybody that I also received with the car a free mebership to SOFA (Silly Old Farts Association) .
I refuse to be intimidated, I figure your never to old to have fun and whilst I can still get in and out of the damn thing then fun I will have, after all you are a long time dead!
I wonder if I qualify as the oldest owner?
Cheers

Thanks for your comment, it gave me a "warm and tingly feeling"
Age is really only a number, however I'm told if you don't use it, you may well lose it.
Incidently my wife (aged 69) has just been chosen to represent Australia in the womens 70's tennis team competing in Florida USA this Oct. and I'm very proud of her especially since it's only 4 years since she had surgery for bowel cancer.
Thanks again,
Cheers.

I voted in my wife's age category since it is her car.
I'm building a Factory Five Roadster, for me it is a much better mid-life crisis car.
