I saw really old people in a Vette once. I was proud of em and gave them a thumbs up. The old white haired lady flipped me off. I think she thought I flipped them off. But that's OK. I was even more proud of her finnger at her age.

36 here and I see no reason to conform to what others think. I come from a family of speed demons. My mother is 76 and has an 04 Grand Am GT. When i bought my 04 Stang GT she drove me to the dealer to pick it up, on the highway back she was doing 110, I kid you not. I looked down and I am doing 105 she is at least 5 car lengths ahead of me.

She is still a led foot, while in my old age I am beginning to slow down a bit.... Go figure.

I look at it like this. My first new car was a stang in the 80's, and 14 stangs later I see no reason to change the type of car i drive.

I just turned 30. You know what's still awesome? Peeling out. You know what's even better? Doing a burnout whenever you leave your buddies house. They always wait in the driveway to watch what happens next.

I am 63 and on my third Mustang GT, a couple of weeks ago some young buck wanted to show off how fast his Caddy was, nice looking car to, after I left him behind he pulled up at the next light and seeing that I was not a kid, said, "Hey, I should be driving your car and you should be driving mine, I told him I was to young for a Caddy. I did not see the model of his car but it said northstar on the back as I let him leave the light first and I had to turn.

I was wondering what is the average age group of most new mustangs owners?     Some dry a**es where I work think I should *switch* to a minivan and "act my age".........    

Just curious to what age groups of peeps we have in here.........    Oh yeah.....I turn the big "3-0" this year !  :)

Sniff....sniff....sniff, you smell that? I smell hate, in your workplace. They are if anything just jealous of the fact that your not stuck in a camry or some other drab econbox or responsiblemobile. I plan to be 21 forever even if I'm pushing a walker in a retirement home chasing nurses that aren't even born yet. 30, hell 30 is the new 20.

Thank you Timmy.........It does my soul good to hear everyone chime in about their thoughts on the matter.....and I am glad to go out and be myself.    Oh yeah......I will probably still be working when I should be retired.....so I might be one of the nurses there at your nursing home one day............ Shella ~

My grandad used to say "Son, you're only as old as the woman you feel".
I'm 46, my wife is 32 and when I drive my GT I feel like I'm 19!

Tomorrow’s guaranteed to no one.  Today, this moment, it's all you got.  Crap I just wasted it posting!

40 aint no use whining about it, can't go back, wouldn’t want to if I could, don’t remember the old days as being that good anyway.  But I agree sure wish the washer would stop shrinking my jeans!

You're only as old as you feel, in your head.  Have fun while you can.
I'm 36 and one of my co-workers is on this forum too and he's a little older than me.  The people I work with that are my age or older are very into cars and hot rodding them.  One of my bosses has a Charger Daytona that I've been trying to get him to race me with and is working on a street rod with a very large motor.  I guess I'm just lucky with my co-workers.  They have come to expect to see me pass them on crew change though.

37 here and first time Mustang owner as well.  Loving it - it was worth the wait, but now that I've had a taste, I just don't see any "practrical" cars in my future.  Nope.

Well I'm 35 and I'm told by my entourage that I'm getting more and more retarded with the years....   My last car purchase is a testament to that I guess!
My 2 girls (11,13) tell me I should act my age...

It is true.....age is a state of mind.  Just because your chronological number may be higher than someone else's does not mean you have gone into cruise control and no longer participate in your own navigation................ :)   Shella ~
