42 and still loving this car every minute of it.
I'm a personal trainer so at least I don't look like some old fart driving around in my midlife crisis car......
Two kids, my son is 18 and drives a 95 GS-T (he's jealous.....)
My daughter is 13 and wants a Mustang GT.... (glad we'll have to wait on that one!)
Was driving an 02 Eclipse GT with ground effects, Tien S-Tech, KYB AGX shocks, sway bar, cat back, intake. blah, blah blah and finally decided that I deserved a REAL car.

38 here, always dreamt of buyng an EVO. It's my "luxury SUV" 
Tons of sport, loads of utility and luxury of driving what I like and not what the others think I should or can afford to.

First, don't take this personally, and you already said that you're the exception to the rule, so this doesn't apply to you, but...
The stereotypes which "**** you off" persist because they are actually statistically predictive of actual behavior. Check auto insurance rates for a 19 year old male compared to a 37 year old male. Check average income and net worth for a 19 year old male compared to a 37 year old male.
Most 19 year olds will have a very hard time financially buying and insuring an Evo. And most 19 year olds drive like crap. I did and most of my friends did.
I'm happy that you can afford an Evo and drive it well.
Instead of being upset that I express an opinion that most 19 year olds can't handle an Evo financially or otherwise, you should be happy that you can. Smile, you're ahead of the pack.
Hey im 19 and i got an evo and i dont drive like a *** or i dont suck at driving i have had 5 dsms before this and drove each and everyone respecting everyone else on the road........and i afford it no problem jus got to put alot into it and not get alot of other stuff you might want....but anyway its cool no harm done ha....
