Regardless of what car he bought...at 102 years old, I hope I have the energy to get behind the wheel of ANY car, let alone one with 420+ hp.

Good for him! (he should have gotten a GTR )

God bless the old man but, All of u sayin kool. I got one question.
Do u wanna be drivin next to this guy in traffic? Lmao!
He probably be doin 30mph on a 70mph highway potentially causing an accident or seriously disrupting the flow of traffic.
I don't think you need 426hp for that. Lol
