A New Sports Car Is The Epitome of Mid-Life Crisis

A New Sports Car Is The Epitome of Mid-Life Crisis

Where does this saying even come from? Every time we see a middle age man driving a sports car they are stereotyped as being in the middle of a mid-life crisis or overcompensating for something lacking in their life. While they have also been dubbed chick magnets, we tend to overlook the fact that maybe these men are buying these sports cars because they can and more importantly, they are just fun to drive. They go fast and are easy to maneuver and do not require much space. Many people who purchase sports cars are middle age because they are finally finished raising their children, and when the last child leaves the house, parents trade in the minivan for something fun to drive. For years they drive a family friendly vehicle and are just ready for a change. There is no overcompensation or mid-life crisis. Just a feeling of freedom from the constraints of a large family vehicle. Plus, did I mention they are a blast to drive?

Why Choose A Sports Car?

Aside from the speed, maneuverability, and the ease of driving them, sports cars are visually appealing. There is just something about looking at a sports car that makes you happy even if you do not own one. Most people’s dream cars are a type of sports car, not a truck or SUV, but a sports car. This is no surprise. We always want what we cannot have. So, when we have a family of four or five a sports car is out of the question because they do not offer enough room. As soon as the kids are gone, why not indulge in what suddenly becomes practical for a family of one or two?

Keeping Your Car Clean

Keeping Your Car Clean Owning a car comes with a lot of responsibility. And managing your car can become expensive, you need to register it, buy insurance, and maintain it. Another one of those responsibilities is keeping your vehicle clean, inside and out. With so many products and car care advice out there, it can be hard to pick what is right for your vehicle. Below are a few myths and facts that you may have wondered about, such as types of car soap, supplies, and other topics. This or That There might have come a time that you were out of car soap or heard from someone that dish detergent will clean your car. Well, it would CLEAN your vehicle, but dish detergent will actually speed up oxidation on the paint, and it will lead to a degradation of the paint job. A shiny car isn’t necessarily a clean car. To honestly know if your vehicle is clean, you should feel the paint to see if it feels glossy and not coarse. If it feels more like sandpaper, then the car isn’t clean, a...

Check Them Out 1964 Aston Martin DB5, Goldfinger- James Bond's legacy of famous cars and far-out gadgets can be traced back from one car—the 1964 Aston Martin DB5 007 driven in Goldfinger and Thunderball. Even without the spy modifications, (included ram bumper, machine guns, ejector seat, smoke screen, or oil-slick sprayer), it is still a work of art. 1977 Pontiac Trans Am, Smokey and the Bandit- Director Hal Needham couldn't have predicted the impact that car would have on America.
