My dad is 75 and is thinking of getting one.

Although I guess the main part was that it was an older lady

The irony of life. By the time you can afford such a car, you probably won't explore its full potential.

I have once seen a 430 with a handicap parking licence. That driver is a senior also.

That must be one limber 75 year old to get in and out of that car!

So how did you know she was 75? I once saw someone who I thought was maybe 35 or something driving a Porsche on the freeway. He could have been a celebrity maybe. And once I saw a dog in the back seat of an Audi. It was either a male or female and had brown fur.

I saw an SLS today too. I actually see them quite often. But here are some BB pics I took of one today, for those who don't know what the car looks like...

So what? She's 75, she deserves to drive one. Unlike the teenagers rolling with mommy's and daddy's retirement money.

Seriously... In my teenage years, 200HP was far ENOUGH power for a car. Now you've got kids rolling around in cars faster than they can handle.

You'd have to have been living in a cave to not know what one looks like, I doubt many people who belong to this forum live in caves
