Age of C36 and C43 owners

I have the impression that I could be the grandpa of people who contribute and talk on this forum. So, to do a rain check why not post the year of birth (exact date NOT needed) if you are not chicken:

1. DRBC43AMG = 1949

DRB is as old as my parents!

1978 for me, and I feel old sometimes. The moment I really felt old was in about 2003 when Kimi Raikkonen won his first F1 race, because he is younger than me by a few years. Up to that point, all the favourite drivers were older than me...

Car was born in 98. I was born in 88.


I wonder if I can find the day my car rolled off the assembly line...


Edit: January 14, 1998. Dang, 10 years and 7 days apart!
