I'm 49, go at 120mph at least once per week, hit the dragstrip 1-2 times per month during warmer weather, and street race my son in his '87 GT from light to light when no one is around.  Also play some bad a$$ guitar in a classic rock band (well, it broke up and I'm looking again) and jam with my other son's band when they let me.  Who needs drugs and booze when I got the need for speed and down and dirty blues!

so what do they mean? how old do you have to be to own a mustang or a sports car anyway? i am 45 and have no plans to buy a Buick any time soon. LOL the people that say stuff like that are just jealous, because they want one or can't have one.

You guys are gonna love this -

I'm out working this morning and I pull into a parking lot at a bank.
As I'm pulling in I notice a windveil blue GT sitting in a spot (my favorite color).
Then I see a little old lady, mebbe mid-70s, or older, walking that slow old people walk across the lot (that same walk I find myself doing more and more these days).
I do that quick trajectory calculation and I'm thinking, 'No way!'
Sure enough, she walks on up to the GT and hops in.
So I watch for a bit to see her pull out, thinking to myself, 'If that thing's a 5speed I think I'm gonna burst a blood vessel!'.
Well, it wasn't a 5speed, but it was one of the coolest sights I've seen in awhile, particularly when I saw her in the driver's seat with it all the way foward, up almost all the way to dash as she pulled out.
Kinda wish I'd talked to her; if I wasn't in my other vehicle I probably wouldn't have thought twice about pulling in next to her and asking if I could get a picture.


And yeah, I got gray hair (what's left of it) as well.

Well, most of you guys are too young to remember, but back in my day Jan and Dean had a popular hit song about "the little old lady from Pasadena".  It seems that in her garage, she kept a shiny new super stock Dodge.  There was nobody meaner than the little old lady from Pasadena.  She drove real fast and she drove real hard, she was the terror of Colorado Boulevard.

My first car was a 64 1/2 'stang, 289, 4 speed stick, 4 bbl Rochester carb.

I recently stepped up to the stang from a lexus SC400 and wonder why I waited so long!

tell them to find something in life that they enjoy- well, something besides telling others what they should do.

Dare them to take a GT stick for a testdrive and do so without grinning or wanting to buy it...
