You're still a kid! I always thought that "mature" guys driving Corvettes looked cool. It shows they are still young at heart and enjoy the better things in life. Plus, they know how to take care of it.

I retired at 57 and found out I missed out on a lot of things by dedicating my life to my job. I went and drove a race car at Talladega then came home and bought my first vette at 58. My daughter ask if I was going through the change of life. Nope just starting to live it.
All you guys are young pups compared to me as I bought my Quasar blue 90 coupe at age 66. Still driving my Vette 10 years later at age 76. I don't care if I die tomorrow I have had a blast at my age for the last 10 years. I still enjoy getting compliments on my car by strangers when they tell me how great my Vette looks. Sorry, to dumb to post pictures.

I couldn't agree with you guys more! I bought my 90 coupe late last year when I was 66. I have been very fortunate to have been in excellent health through out my life and am having a blast with the Corvette. My wife and I had the time of our life when we took the Corvette on a 2500 mile trip to the Smokies this spring. The next adventure is to put in a coupe of hot laps at Road America ( 20 minutes away) later this summer. Who needs to search for the "fountain of youth" when we have our C4's?
Charles and other guys,
I feel honored to be in this group. I am 67 and just got my first Vette. 88 Convertible. I always wanted one when I was a kid. But the early 1960's was a different era and money was hard to come by. Then raising kids and family came along. I don't know much about them but am trying to learn and I will. My kids now tell me "it's about time Dad that you enjoy things-go for it!" And I agree-now's the time for us "old farts" to enjoy our youthful minds.
