Default Am I too old to drive a Scion TC?

Hello, for the past 13 years I've been driving a 1996 Toyota Paseo. LOL to this day I'm still driving the car my parents bought me way back when I was in High School, I've been liking the TC ever since it came out back in '05, I really like the design and price for the car, until one of my friend said I'm too old to drive that car their usually for high schoolers and early twenties college students, was shocked when he said that, so of course I did a little research on the web and it seems he might be right. I never knew that certain cars were made for a certain age group. He recommend I get a Honda Accord coupe like him, but honestly I don't like the design and price for that car. I'm 29 but I'll be 30 in four months.

Never too old!! Great cars and you should make your decision on what you like. You are the one that will drive it, not them. I am 38 and love the car. Just my 2 cents

Am I too old to drive a Scion TC?
I used to believe in the saying "there are no stupid questions", but this proves there's at least one exception.

There's an FM '08 tC in my neighborhood owned and driven my a woman in her 60s at least. Age, like the weather, is merely a state of mind.
