I can't believe how young you guys are. I would have thought vast majority over 45. I have made a lot of money in my life and I could not afford an E55 until at leat 40+. I am now 58.
I tip my hat to those of you who bought your car with your own money.

I'm 18 and getting ready to finalize my college decisions 
No E55 and I haven't paid for a car yet by myself but plans are in the pipeline for my own car by the end of my teenage years... and hopefully something a bit quicker than the X5.

36 ... but when I was 20-25 the fastest car around did the 0-100 dash in just under 6 seconds.. old LP400 Countach / and 930 Porsche turbo... soon after came the F40 and 959 ... which set new benchmarks ... sub 4 seconds & 200mph!
Wow we now have saloons which can keep up ... well almost.

Well, hopefully this isn't my last mid-life crisis car! Now that I've gotten a few things the wife requested (a nice house...a pool/cabana...a couple of kids...
), I finally get my first toy! (assuming you don't count the '97 m3 or '01 clk430... ). Of course, even this was her idea (uh, sort of...). She wanted to get a third car to leave one behind for the babysitter. Boy, was she surprised when she let me roll with that idea and I had this BEAST delivered to the house! 
BTW, could I have stratified those buckets any better? Wow, they're pretty much all equal...
