Guys let's not make this a replay of the 'how old are you' thread or we might as well merge it with that one... the OP asked how many over 30 y.o. 2IS owners there are.
There was no 'hate' in any part of this thread until you brought it up. She asked a simple demographic question without any malice towards the younger owners or you in particular... don't take this thread downhill.
Let's keep this on topic please

But to answer his question, the point of this thread is that I realized that I'm probably one of the fewer older people on this thread, there is no hate against the younger crowd, seriously. Matter of fact, I envy that you all are able to have these cars at such a young age. That means you are really doing okay!
And to be honest, I grew up underprivileged so to be able to finally get a car like this is a big deal to me. It's a dream that I never thought would EVER become real.

I am working on some nice gigs and I can humbly say I am doing pretty okay After all.... when you don't have to pay for food, living, your income for car and mods gets bigger. I am even looking forward to getting a weekend car, but I am not sure if my family will kick me out after seeing where my money goes.
Plus, I can say I am lucky my parents are college educated, and I am from a middle class family so my starting point both before and after college, are better than a lot of less fortunate folks.

Wow some people got all defensive in the earlier posts. If you're in the 30's, it's about time you graduated and join the GS/LS section. Haha kidding.
I'm 25 and I saved up for 2 years to put a large down payment to get my 350. Ahhh hardest 2 years of my life. Worked full time and part time at school while I finished my Bachelor's. So ya, I pat myself in the back, couldn't care less how anyone else got their ride. 'Cuz it don't matta!

The majority of driver I see on the streets are 30+ here in socal (LA, SGV, OC, and SD) . I say about 80%
It's only the young whipper snapper that comes to car forum to mod and show off their car.
Also the majority of IS250/350 drivers are girls from what I notice as oppose to all the guys on this forum. Two of my ex drive IS250 - White

Micaiah, 30+ is not old. 30-40 is a age range where people get matured and their career are skyrocketing. Saying that 30 is old makes me feel so old even though I'm just 26. But a lot of my friend called me "old man" cause I always play it safe.
Anyway, I was surprised when I joined this forum. I bought a used IS250 until I got a job.

In regards to women and white cars, I wanted a white one so bad! But the white one I had my eye on was ...'tainted'. A dog got to it. Torn but repaired leather, scratched up interior, damage to the door handle (I later figured it was chew marks) and PEEYEW!! That car smelled pretty funky. Blech! Found dog hairs in the little leather yeehaw thingy that is velcro in the back seat!
BTW you know you all had me running over the the ES forum right? Came right back here.
