I got mine in my mid 30's. I have to admit that the car is usually for older drivers and it is rare to do wheels. I would not look at the responses on the forum as accurate because the real drivers of this car are not sitting on CL forums. Its mainly the younger crowd

I agree with your observation.

My guess is the average age of new LS buyers is higher (I've read around 60) and pre-owned buyers tend to be a younger crowd.

Wow, at 18 I was in a '70 Chevelle with a 14:1 402 that ran 11.05's.
Got my LS when I was 46 but have been in an old-man car since 34 (previously Acura RL)
I have another car for track time so I love my quiet, luxury yacht while on the street!

My wife is 30 and I'm 37. The car is hers.

Glad I came across this thread because the only people I see around the Irvine/Newport Beach (California) area driving the LS are old white/chinese guys. I tease my wife about this all the time but she loves the car.

I'm in Irvine/Newport area, and I'm Asian and 45. I agree, LS drivers are mainly old guys/gals (they are less likely to join and post on Club Lexus forum).
