That is nice to see so many 50+ owners. I am 32 and am thinking about buying a Type R.

I am cross shopping between this and the 997.2 4S PDK. I know these are very different cars but they are both within my budget. I am a Honda fan so Type R is my ultimate dream. Decision decision....
I've got a 2005 996 C4S and just bought the Type R. Both are great cars, different but great. The Type R is quicker than the P-car...btw. This summer will probably help me make the decision if I will keep both...Don't tell the wife but probably will keep both!!

i was 31 when i bought it and now 33. Just do it!
I'd prefer a P car tbh over it but they serve 2 different purposes.

Perfect 4 door family car, haha! Never too "old" for a car with a wing in my opinion. Since these cars come with a hefty price tag, I feel most middle aged people are attracted to them since in most cases they can afford such car (since credit is established and insurance is usually cheaper at that age) while the others settle for the Si (which is also a great option). There was a poll on a facebook page and most owners who submitted answers were between age 35 and 50

I just turned 25

surprisingly enough insurance isn't too bad on the R. I was 22 when I bought mine...23 now and pay $140. that may be a lot for some on here but I think it's reasonable considering my age. Shit I paid 280 on the 2016 lexus I had....ouch!

What, you're only 45, you're still just a kid.
I'm in my early 50's and plan on buying a 2019 CTR.
Remember my friend you're only as old as you feel, age is just a number.
Get what you want and be happy, and never ever worry about what other people think.
I was in my early forties when I bought my Ariel Atom and when we all met up at the racetrack one year, I met a gentleman named Eddie Hill quite a famous drag racer who owned an Atom and he was 72 years Young.
i completely agree with this statement thank you!:drive:

43 here, but my CTR makes me drive like I'm a stupid 18yo again. I really need to get a radar detector...
