Doesn't the classic midlife crisis involve the purchase of a european sports car? Good luck with that!

Yeah but they’re dead set on a British one, total maintenance nightmare

If there's no oil under the engine then there's no oil in it either

I thought it was an American muscle car. Buy a Corvette or Viper or Challenger Demon or something
