Late 30's, married guy with toddler. Bought my PSM '02 WRX wagon last year after literally having the same honda hatch for 18 years. Always a subie n rally fan. So I guess it's sorta my midlife crisis car. ;-)
Plus I wanted a more reliable car with air conditioning- kid you not. And a 4 door for the carseat.
Love my subie and it came with moderate but safe mods so it's a sleeper. Plus I've been adding some bolt on handling n speed bits. Yeah it's funny when your older than the cop pulling you over.... Not funny when you are "pops" at the local subie owners meetup.
