    Just checked it. 336 months alive and owned a 3/S for 108 months which puts me at 32%.

    I've had mine for 8.9% of my life (~28 months of ownership & I'm ~315 months old).
    Total time the car was operational: 12 months. (had to fix a lot of stuff before I began to use it & now it's down for a transmission overhaul/snowballing into a lot a bunch of other fixes, too)

    Who's got my 205 months of 3S ownership beat?
    I've been alive for 384 months and had the car for 165 months. That's 42.96%.
    The car was originally bought new by my father and has been with me for 250 months. That is 65.1% of my life.

    I'm sure Dave Best would have us beat. He's an original owner of a 92 vr4.

    The ideal age to "win" this competition would be 36. That would put you at 16 yrs old when the first 3S was released, and if you bought it then and kept it, you'd have had it for almost 21 years, so about 57% is the max anyone could have.

    I think the idea should be amended since the first 16 years of most of ours lives doesn't really count since we didn't own any car.

    Anyway...
    248 months old with 25 months of ownership = 10.08%. I'm such a noob.

    In my version 56 months since I turned 16 with 25 months of ownership = 44.64% of my driving life. That sound better.

    If you wanna do it that way I have owned my Stealth for 61% of my driving life.

    i got my license when i was 19--thus meaning i've owned this car for 67.9% of my driving life.

    not really a fair comparison when you consider that some people bought a 3/s at age 15, and it has been their first and only car.
