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.

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

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.

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...
