When is your car's birthday?

I just realized that my car's birthday (production date) was yesterday. It's hard to believe that I've had this vehicle for over 10 months now. Getting to be time for Service A.

My car’s birthday is, to me, the day I drove it home. It didn’t exist until it came in my stable.

The S63 was September 25, 2019
The e63S Wagon was May 25, 2021

If life begins at conception my car's first birthday comes up in late January, when I placed the order. If life begins with the gleam in my eye? Hmm.

Then again, I guess there are build sheets.

Birthday to me is Production date 7/5/2021.

it is not car’s fault that I was out of town and took delivery at the end of September.

This is really cool, out of the box thinking..
Lets assume in this case it was born on the day X. No parents showed up and was handed over to CPS.
Three years later, Good Samaritan adopted the poor child.
According to this logic, it would have been three years younger?
To extend this logic, one can purchase 2004 car this year and claim it’s less than 1 year old?
