We all have heard the stereotypes about certain sports cars or grand tourers as mid-life crisis vehicles (the corvette being a classic example). But which cars in the category are least saddled with this baggage? I’m curious if there is variation across the category.
Put more evocatively: If a graying gentleman steps out of a lovely and fast looking car with a woman half his age, which models would have the highest proportion of people thinking “It’s so nice that he still has a good relationship with his daughter” vs. “I wonder which number trophy wife she is?”.
Chevy SS (if you consider it a sports/GT car.
Stinger GT.
Most classic sports cars that aren’t too flashy and definitely look several generations old. By classic I mean well over the technical 25 year old age. These are almost always considered cool by most people.
