You wrote "Good" which he replaced with "Well" which is proper English.

He's "one of those" Right Scrappy?

Usually when your kids start paying their own way and you can finally start to spend your money on yourself.

My wife refers to it as an entire life crisis

Definitely one way of putting it, I always felt that it was like your last chance to relive your youth and or feel relevant in today's world before you drift off into old age and monotonous routines

I wouldn't consider that a crisis; that's more like a well-deserved reward.

I have never felt relevant.

Amen.

Ha! @soulreapersteve gave me an extra inch. We're the same height. NOTHING is made for people our size. While I miss the fit of my 240Z, the 86 is close enough and is better at just about everything else including not being a death trap.

Zero regrets. I'm 100% invested in this machine.

Unless you LS-swap it or something..

Thats part of the rotary appeal.

Thanks for the responses...even the snarky ones pointing out my typos. I have fat fingers.

I have looked at some old RX-7s, but having dealt with pooched apex seals back in the day....um....no. I'm looking for a jump in and go car. Not a project I have to wrench on.

I have test driven a Genesis Coupe...my ass is too wide for the seat. I was sitting on top of the bolsters. OUCH!

You folks seem like a great community too. That's important when it comes time for upgrades and problems.

Love the suggestion to do a weekend test drive. Heck. I'd be happy if I could get an overnight loan and do another review video. Just gotta find a dealer or owner who'll let me do it.
