This is a spin-off of the poll for Average age on this forum.
Kwescott suggested seeing whether most members here were buying new/used and what age since there is a large amount of used 8's for sale.
I'm breaking up the polls based on age groups that had the most hits in the poll.
So, please select New or Used in your age group. Vote based on your age at time of purchase.

Was 28 when I bought mine used with only 1700 miles. It was used but was still on the showroom floor of the preowned section of a Chrysler dealership. Supposedly, a 50ish year old woman had traded my 6MT in on an one with an auto tranny.

good question....cause it was 4 years ago when I bought the car new....in that time though, I've left the 25-29 age bracket. I voted based on my current age.

"35+, bought new"
But consider that when I was 22, I bought a BN '80 RX-7. Of course, back then the sticker price on that car was $10,300. I put $5,000 down and had very reasonable payments. Saved the down payment, have been working since I was 16. Not every young driver of a new car is or was a child of privelidge. Some of us worked very hard for what we had.
