I'm 50.

I'm also surprised at the young age of many owners noted here. Good for you. For all of you around my age, good for us too.

Before you guys even ask, yes i paid for it myself, yes i pay for insurance myself and yes my insurance coverage is under myself. $4k a year for liability in Brooklyn is no joke.. :(
Well good for you. :thumbsup: $4K a year in insurance, :o :cry:

I just turned myself 46 three weeks ago.

I'm a member of lots of forums and a 'How old is everyone' thread always pops up at some point and always started by someone young. Usually by someone who is very proud of themselves for driving such a nice car at such a young age.
Im not having a go, its just an observation. :) It always seemed to me from the posts that the UK guys on here seem younger than US lot too.
Im 30, and i suppose probably about the average age for a Z4 owner in UK. As similarly to most its a DINKY car.

I'm 39 but who cares about age?

It's how you feel & behave that matters :)

No way a DINKY car for me, single income and two kids, think I got something wrong.
