I see lots of old folks drive STI and EVO ~ I don't think age will have anything to do with what kind of car you drive.

when i found out my wife was pregnant, it was about the time i got my new car. everyone said oh what are you going to get now? a wagon? an suv? **** that im getting a subaru. as far as "is someone too old for a certain car"? thats just stupid. take something like video games. the largest market for gamers is adults. not children like most would think. they judge on what they dont know about. so your 33, do you feel like driving the stereotypical car for a 33 year old? no. then dont. to all the haters, **** em. more power to ya man !

are you happy driving the car?
if yes F--- them and tell them to follow there trends somewhere else.

I agree with what Subyn00by said about it being a hobby. People are to caught up in what is "cool" these days and cant think outside the box enough to realize that if you like something for what it is, that is enough of a reason to do it.
