I wish I could do this for my dad. When he was young his favorite car was a little British roadster from the 60's (he never owned it). I can finally maybe afford one.

But he already has a BMW Z4, and his joints and balance aren't so good anymore so he struggles to get into that. He'd have the same problems, plus nowhere to keep it unless he sold the Z4. And I'm reticent to spend the money due to what we'll euphemistically call changes happening in the US.
