I haven't bought one, but I really want to, and I'm 45. I've always preferred small, agile, well-balanced cars, and this one nails it. (I've tested the FR-S.) I'm not concerned about perceptions of a mid-life crisis or anything else -- I just want it! I'm just afraid my wife will like it too, and will want to drive it more than I'd like, but hey, if she's willing to let me get it, I'll be willing to hand her the keys...once in a while.
