Kevin, you hit the nail on the head! This is not a "crisis" thing. This is simply a realization that you can now afford to buy and own one of the cars you've always dreamt of owning. Personally, I dreamt of owning my very own 911 all of my life (my dad was a fanatic with his own Porsches in the 60's, 70's, and 80's). Finally, four years ago, at the age of 40 (yes...40), my wife and I ended up with enough combined income that we finally decided WHY NOT? I finally ended up with the black '84 Carrera that I still have and cherish more every day. Along the way, I stumbled on this forum, met some great guys and have made some life long personal friends. The past four years have been great! I also attend maybe a dozen track days a year, which I had never done until this point in my life (although I've always been a race fanatic).
Crisis my a$$. I've had so much fun with this that two years ago I went out and bought a 996 Carrera as my daily driver and my wife sold her BMW and bought a Cayman as her daily driver. We haven't looked back.
If you want it and can afford it...buy it!
