I honestly don't find cars impressive at all, all I think when I see a middle age man in a Corvette is "Mid-Life Crisis man!"
There is an idiot here at work, bought a BMW worth more then my house! (Granted the guy has the money to throw around but still) Anyway the thing is dinged up and scratched and crappy looking now and all I think whenever I see him is, What an Idiot! not what a sweet car he has.
You know you don't have to spend a fortune to have a nice sports car. Plenty of inexpensive British and older Japanese roadsters around in the sub $7K level.
Personally, I would love to get another sports car. I've owned 2 RX7s in the past and a nice Subaru (although not a true sports car as it was just the Outback Sport model, was still the nicest car I ever owned). Right now with a young family, it just doesn't make sense. Still there is nothing like driving down a windy country road in a perfectly tuned car. Someday I will get another sports car. Someday.
What's the point of having a car that's so fast when you will never get an oppertunity to use it what it was designed for, waste of money IMO. But I'm sure there are the same people saying the same things about Pins, so to each their own.
I was at mosport on the weekend with my z06

And I feel no need to impress anyone, so I have no use for status symbols either.
Me neither, I believe a person shouldnt give a mess what others think. If you're happy with your vehicle who the hell cares?

Maybe for some, I guess mine is a midlife crisis too being 22.
