Maybe its the simple reason that grownups with more disposable income and no need to hall kids around can splurge on a Mini or a little two seater.

This pretty much had been my argument through the years for owning a Vette when someone wanted to call it a "mid life crisis car". Some of the same principles apply. I couldn't afford a new Vette when I was 20 and single.

Get a little older...make more $$...no kids in the house and first thing someone says is oh "mid life crisis".
