Where's the chimp?

Where's the chimp?

In the trunk.
Duh.

T'heck with a sports car, I'd take a chromed out shiney sparkle green Peterbuilt 379 with the loudest pipes ever... RIGHT NOW if anyone wants to donate one to me.

It's not a "sport's car".

It's the "Mach 5".


Duh.

Yep. Although I'd prefer a Kenworth.

Meh. I've driven a tank. Tough to get excited about "big" after that. Driving a tank is a lot of fun, especially when you get to run over stuff. Stuff to run over can get expensive. I can't afford a tank.

A Trailer just got the top ripped off at the mill. I guess the driver didn't notice the 12 foot 7 inch sign on the overpasses.

My recommendation for a midlife crisis car is to get one your wife loves also:

Then when she isn't looking buy another one for yourself and send it straight to the shop to be restored so she forgets about it:

That happened when I was up there last as well. 8/24/16. It was fun to look at as we headed home.

That abomination looks like something a WWE wrestler would drive.




Leadeye, you have consistently fine taste whether it is cars or guns



This is good advice - the car fits your criteria and you get the bonus of listening to your yoot.

Looks like hearse for midgets!

That is a nice set of headlights.

Sweet!

When you put this much thought into it, it's actually a midlife rational decision car. Still, you all have good ideas.

I'll toss in with the Porsche fellas... One of the last air cooled 993 C2 Cabs would be my choice. But as I have 2 Sons in MS/HS getting ready for College I'll have to settle for my newer A6 for now.

Had a '73 Targa S project car that never seemed to get finished so I sold to a relative who had it fully restored.

Porsche = deep pockets.
There are many other cars that deliver as much fun with less cost of ownership.
No you don't get to say you own a Porsche.
Don't get me wrong I hope to own one some day I love Porsches.

2011 Camaro SS/RS, 2SS package. Summit White with Inferno Orange accents. 6.2L LS3 motor, 6 speed manual.
Pedders XA adjustable coilover suspension, roughly a 1.25" drop from factory height.
Katskinz leather seat cover replacing the factory leather/pleather, still with SS stitching.

Well, here she is after a clay bar treatment and fresh coat of Chemical Brothers wax:

Here's the HUD:
