Damn! I must have one foot in the grave!!! I'm 41 and just got to the point of making enough scratch to afford nice cars. What do you youngin's do that allow you to buy this nice ride? ;-)

Actually I am also one of youngest at age of 23 . I am loving every bit of my Lexus after coming from a problematic 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2004 Nissan Maxima. I am in medical school working my *** off though.

37, and I'll feel young again in 2 weeks when I pick up my GS350

I think the younger age results may reflect a younger internet savy group out there. Some of us old folks are lucky enough to figure out how to get on line much less this site!

All kidding a side, I felt like a teenager again when I test drove this car.

We've worked out price and I still have a few options out there. It will be AWD w/ nav... still undecided on ML. All cars on lot have rear sunshade. I'm leaning towards Smokey Granite Mica but also considering obsidian

Im not sure its what people do as much as its what responsibilities people have.

Dont take this the wrong way but when you are 44 as opposed to 24 your obligations will, most likely, be vastly different.

22, no kids, good job and renting leaves a lot left over as opossed to 44, 2 kids, stay at home wife, and probably a real nice home, maybe even 2.

Im not saying everyone rents who is 22 but the financial obligations are just not there a majority of the time.

Point is if you can afford it and it makes you happy, then why not do it.

I'm 34 with a 2007 GS350 AWD. Most people I see in the Seattle area with GS's are older than me.

WOW!!! All these youngster purchasing a 40K-50K car. Sounds like all the youngester made out like a bandit in the real estate market, or Mom and Dad hooked it up.
