What is the average age of the MKIII driver?

potential mk3 driver here, first post on this board.

i'm 29 now, but i've idolized the *A70 since i was in high school (graduated in '96). when i was a senior there was one of the "white option" turbo supras for sale near me and i pleaded unsuccessfully with my father to get that as my first car. since i was on his insurance, he nixed it and i wound up in an '84 celica gt instead. not fast by anyone's definition, but it was still fun. especially in the wet.

had an '02 WRX as my last car, got rid of it before i went into army training for 9 months, now i'm looking for something not involving payments and with what i've got to play with, i can pay cash for a decent mk3 and still have money to mess with it.

the car i'm looking at is an '89 non-turbo sport (targa, tems, LSD, etc).

given that i've loved the 2 240sx's (s14 and then s13 coupe) and the e30 bmw 325is i drove over the past 5 years, i'm pretty sure i'm gonna love supra ownership (once i pull 200 to 300 pounds of unnecessary weight outa the car, anyway).

nice to meet you all. looking forward to learning more about these cars.

(and no, "dk" does not stand for "drift king", i was using it as a musician's handle back in 2001 before that godawful movie ever came out. it referred to the "decay" effect on my sampler.)
