I am 66 years young thinking on the N with the P package.
My last fun car was a 2005 350 Z. It will not be my DD, what do you think ?

Have you done a test drive yet? If not, drive one. I’m 63 and spoiled myself with a new 2020 PP 6 weeks ago. I love it (like you say, it isn’t my daily driver).
71 next week, most fun I have had in long time. 2020 blue pp. what I really like is that you can drive like your age when the wife is around, and drive like the car should be driven when alone.

Age 72, bought a 2020 VN PP about two months ago and love it. Far more fun than my 2006 330i which I sold last month.

Hey, I'm 49 next week so I guess I qualify for the old fart thread LOL 😛

This is my first true hot hatch. I've had plenty of shitbox hatches and other fun cars but never a fast hatch. That didn't leak oil. That wasn't a death trap. And had a nice stereo! The Infinity sound kicks ass.

It's fun ripping up back roads with this thing. It'll never be on track (maybe an Autocross though) so back roads is as close to track time as it'll see.

I'm 56 y/o and my Red Performance Package VN is my daily driver and will see some non competitive track and autocross time. It's better I drive it hard in a safe off road environment because I'm gonna drive it like I stole it anyway due to the car's fun to drive nature. Some day I'll grow up to be a responsible human being!

41, older than some, younger than many it sounds, and learn something new everyday. Sadly, many have not learned a thing in a long time, so be it, being less than half my age......

I'm younger than Keith Richards but older than Taylor Swift.

Happy VN Base owner here. The Drive modes make this car suitable for daily, performance, and even -- so far -- in some snow.

Cheers,

And when I brought my VNPP home, I thought I would be the only one with a little gray owning one 🙂 I’m 45

Recently added a PP V N and a V Turbo to my car collection. The most driving fun available with your pants on.

65 years old and traded my 2016 Challenger SRT on the N with PP. Only have 125 miles on it so far, but I like.

75 and will be getting my chalk white N PP on March 19th when I return to Wisconsin from Naples. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it beyond a short shift kit. I have my fingers crossed that it will be half as fun as my (sold) '90 Miata. It started life with 96 hp at the rear wheels and by the time I got done with it the dyno said 262.2 - not bad for 2200#.

I cant wait to turn old and just do odd stuff like run around without any pants on. Everyone will just say... hes old and lost it, just let him be. I do that now, Ill end up in the news and websites I don't want to be on.

Congrats on the car(S) brother.
