Not because of mid-life crisis but a change in perspective. I figure I can't bring my money with me hence, better to enjoy some of it first!
That's the spirit man! A few suggestions for you:

1. Avoid Used Import. There are sometimes serious hidden problems with these cars.
2. Sweet spot is about 2-3 yrs old because of Stuttgart's 4 year warranty.
3. Be careful of PI cars. OMV is low, so depreciation will be high.
4. For the S model, target about $20K depreciation per year. Actual depreciation may be only $15K if you maintain it well and manage to sell it after 10 years.
5. Have it inspected at Stuttgart for around $500 before you buy. Even though under warranty, you don't want the hassel of repairing it if there are leaks etc.

Good luck on your supercar
