I'm 26. But I don't own an Aston 
Madly jealous of you 20-somethings with one, but in a loving way! I know if I continued in my current job, I'd have the means to pick up a used one in a couple years....but I have to do what's practical and go do my MBA....and go into 80k of debt so I won't be able to get a nice car for awhile. It'll pay off down the road though! I've lived on my own since I was 22 (not counting uni) and have paid for everything in my life myself so I'm not too unhappy that I can't drive an Aston. I can't wait till I get into i banking or sales & trading or consulting after my MBA and am able to pick one up (or a 07 GT3). Unfortunately it will have to wait until I get a condo
. Ideally, the price of the car will be less than half of my annual gross salary, I'm just not comfortable doing more than that. It's the financially conservative (relatively) canadian in me (plus our crazy taxes). Head rules over heart again. All things in good time and all good things in time! As a sidenote, even the younger aston drivers seem very polite and gentlemanly. I guess the marque attracts a special breed 
Enjoy in good health, guys.

35. Dreaming about it since 30, purchased 6 months ago. Days I miss my BMW 7 series that I bought at 29 to look the part for my clients -0. Number of clients who know I own as Aston -0. I bought it for me, and can say that I still look forward to driving it every day.

41 here. I purchased my car when I was 38.
I bet the results are somewhat skewed as my guess is 6speedonline.com attracts a younger crowd compared to some of the other Aston sites (AMOC.org, pistonheads.com, etc.).
