Default At 64 I feel like I'm among an elite group

I love the age graph! To be in the under 5% category feels very select! You guys make me feel young and I hope to be driving fun cars at 80 and 90.

Welcome the over 60 B8 S4 club! It's pretty exclusive. Can't believe there are actually 17 members????

Met a 70+ year old fellow at the track last year that was drag racing his STS-V..... He told me he was going to mod it this winter and would be looking for a race with my S4 in the spring.... I just hope I am still having as much fun as he was/is when I hit that age!

At this point you should probably be happy just to MAKE his age! Just kidding!

That's similar to the quote I've heard before. "God loves you. He will see you real soon".

Thank God for modern medicine and money. At 50 I'm hoping I'm only halfway done. Vigorous through my 90's would be awesome.

I am coming up on 55 soon. I think I will make it to 85 at best though. That is what my retirement spreadsheet says anyway. I am eligible for retirement in 2 months, will likely retire in 4 months.
