I do not understand how they figured a freaking smart car qualifies as a midlife crisis car in any way....there is just no logic to it.

Do they even understand what a midlife crisis is? With some of the cars on that list, it makes me think they have no clue what a midlife crisis car is.....or even a midlife crisis....

To me, a mid-life crisis car = 2-door, fast, bright colors, and loud.

Typical click-bait article. Just a bunch of stock photos thrown together in a list. Including the Smart car was smart because it got us to discuss it.

With that definition I fall into having a mid-life crisis since I was 20.

FIFY

To me a midlife crisis car is any sports car and older middle aged person will buy to try to recapture their youth. and that usually ends up being expensive sports cars because now they can actually afford expensive things. Yes I must agree it would be someone who has never owned a sports car or is much of a car enthusiast type before.

Something like an LC500 or a Merc...that's an old persons car to me, signifying a very successful person who wants to show off with something nice.

A mid-life crisis car for me would be something like a Jaguar SUV.

This list is bad.

I guess I should add (if I was being honest about myself) the CTS-V could be considered a midlife crisis car for me. I would have never owned a Cadillac until recently but now I want one every time I see one.

Of course, that could be more Cadillac catching up with me then me getting older, but it's hard to say. HP vs Age thing...

Vancouver.

This is how crazy it has become where I live:

The properties include a $31-million mansion that Canaccord Genuity founder Peter Brown sold earlier this year to a buyer whose occupation was listed on the title document as "student."

So yeah, me splurging on a GT3RS is pretty much just buying a normal car. Yeah, i'm broke as fk compared to these income-less students with $31-mil homes.

If I was in your shoes something like this would be a nice fit

The only mitigating circumstances my wife will concede is I sold the plane and with it it’s risk iof crash and dying.

I would not drive the GT4 as I did not want to be the oldest hoon in the state to have an impound..
Now it’s late life low level flying !,,

Try a Piper Malibu if you want real kicks.
Driving is too slow.
