I'll turn 57 this summer before moving back to the US and buying the Type R.

I've owned a '94 Civic EX 5 mT, '97 GSR sedan, 2017 Sport hatch 6mT and 2020 Si. This will be my 5th Honda. Can't wait to get back into a manual after the automatic Focus.

My wife has owned an S2000 and NSX, but they were really her ex's cars, not sure she even drove them. But she's excited for the Type R.

45. My midlife crisis purchase as I wanted something fun, yet be able to transport my parents. A pre-owned 911 wouldn't fit the latter.

Same here, almost, I'm 1968. Kids still in the house. 😄

Not an owner yet, if all goes well I'll get my Type R when we move back to the US in July. Hopefully there's no tariff on the car by then. Trump is threatening tariffs on Japan.

Hopefully no tariffs!! I’d hate to see you miss out!

Still adjusting to the change of no kids. They still come around a good bit though.

Tim here (62)....Had 4 kids and 1 did not leave the nest before producing offspring. Happy sad experience...3 kids moved on and 1 was left in the nest producing grandkids. Kids are great and now that the grandkids are getting older, I am looking forward to getting my garage back.

I'm 29, but who knows how old I'll be when we actually get an FL5 lol
Oh yeah, now that we have one, I'm 32. Didn't take as long to get here as I expected.
