- me ~ 61 in March !

15!!!OK, so I can't drive on the highway, but I do mess around with the (manual gearbox) Zoomness all the time! I must bring a new definition to "starting at a young age". Can't wait for my license and the subsequent hardcore motoring!

Forgot...
Also learned to drive stick on our 1950 VW Microbus
2nd series VW Bus in Kenya 1986
3rd series VW Bus with bed/table, etc
Still have the last three on the previous list, plus also have 1991 Nissan 300zx TwinTurbo (136k miles and going strong)
Many more I'm sure I'm forgetting.
I LOVE CARS! Always have, always have....
p.s. I even owned Cadillacs, but don't tell anyone
