I think it's only a midlife crisis if you buy it after your kids leave home.
Otherwise, full speed ahead.

what if you're italian and kids don't leave home until 35

Better get one with a ramp.

underrated post
i love u user

well this makes me sad.

That´s why young guys have motorcycles. Whole lot of go for little money.

The crisis: YFW you fully appreciate how expensive your dream supercar is to own and operate.

b-b-but more and more SUVs are driving on the road in my third world country and they all have 5 LCD distractions

>be young
>buy motorcycle faster than your dream car for $4k
>die
living the dream

Sounds like you have more pressing mental issues to deal with.

Thats how my uncle died back in the 90s

It seems that there is an unwavering consensus that human driven cars will,be banned ASAP. Even the most die hard ICE enthusiasts believe it.

are GTI's soyboy cars now?

i was honestly thinking of buying one, or a WRX

there seem to be no other options if you want a late model sports car under $30k with 4 doors

VWs yes

japanese cars are anti-soy because nips refuse to bend over for the soylent

>GTI
>WRX
>sports car
kek

It seems that there is an unwavering consensus that you are a massive faggot

Luckily I don't have to worry very much since I have a huge list of cheap 80s/90s turbo wedge box's that if love to have that you can get for under $10k everyday

The only "meek car id like is a 5th or 6th gen mustang or a BRZ or 370z

Just trying to go to school and after I graduate I'll have more than enough to get whatever car on my list I want

It's nice to have taste in cars that happens to be cheap

ecks deeeeeeeee

Gentlemen...BEHOLD

I refreshed this thread waiting for you very VERY nice

>purchased dream car at 19
honestly the build up to trying to get it is more satisfying than owning the thing

noice

That's your dad's car, Trevor.

Hope you can avoid lifestyle creep. Protip: if you get married, you won't. Enjoy your $80k Infiniti SUV.

Fuck that shit.
I've got two kids, and still bought a two seater as my second car. The wife drives an SUV.

If I have kids I'm getting a WRX or Charger or 4door Civic Si to drive the boiis home with B^)

Nono, if you have children you MUST buy a 5ton non-offroad-safe monstrosity.

This. I dreamt for years for my car, literally since I was a small kid and now I have one it feels kinda moot. I love it and want to spend limitless amounts to fix it to showroom condition but the admiration from afar is gone. Forbidden love for lack of a better term.

>I dreamt for years for my car, literally since I was a small kid and now I have one
Except I realized that it would be a 30-year old car at this point, so I went with something a little newer.

>after 18+ years you finally have extra income from not paying for little shit
>buy dreamcar with extra money
>lol midlife crisis

My car's 28 years old but luckily parts are pretty affordable and readily available.

A-are you me?

Why would you even care what someone thinks about a certain model of car? Especially when it's a term that has quickly degraded into a description of whatever a poster doesn't like.

I haven't got any nice cars, but I buy a lot of guns and it's the same feeling. The research phase and looking around for a dealer who has the item I want is much more exciting than actually owning it. After I buy the gun I want I'm looking at another one a week later.

The math works that way for most normies.
25 - get married
26 - 1st kid
28 - 2nd kid
48 - 1st kid finishes college
50 - 2nd kid finishes college

At that point, they have the money or they don't, but even if they do, they're minimum 50 (likely 55-60) driving a sports car.

>luckily parts are pretty affordable
Didn't work out that way for me, so I knew it would not only spend a huge amount of time in a shop, it might also bankrupt me in the process.

No one actually thinks this, you're being memed.

True autonomy in consumer autos is still more than 10 years out and total market penetration will take 20+ years because automobiles are a durable good.

Before total market penetration is achieved a ban will be untenable because it constitutes a regressive attack on the poor, after total market penetration is achieved, a ban will never happen because it won't be necessary.

I mean, unless some neoluddite decides to use his 2021 Chevy Camaro as a weapon against self driving autos...

ICE bans in the city center? Those will happen.

Everything made in Italy is garbage except, sometimes, Moto Guzzi motorcycles.

Post pic of Mompucci. She seems smart.

But you buy the car because you have spare income. Not because you're 55 and having a crisis.

Ashes of our fathers and whatnot

what shitboxes have potential? I'm thinking about starting with a soarer for 1.5k

>some neoluddite

Whomever would you be talking to my good friend ?

Noone here would ever do such a thing

>be young
>can't afford anything
>be middle aged
>still can't afford anything
>wow I wasted my life
>kill myself

That may or not be true, but because it's such a meme, the majority of people will probably think negatively of anyone in that age range driving that kind of car.
It's the same reason younger guys driving the same cars are generally seen as trust funders. The logic being, they aren't old enough to have saved up from decades of work, therefore it must have been given to them.

Never. I'd take my cars and abscond to somewhere where the roasties can't get me.
