Virgil Coffman is a 102-year-old automobile aficionado, who doesn’t let his impressive age keep him out of the fast lane.
Coffman, who worked for General Motors for 25 years, has had a love affair with cars throughout his long life. However, his most recent purchase may rank among the most attention-grabbing, according to AARP.org.
The news source reports that when the active living centenarian saw a bright yellow Transformer Camaro with black racing stripes, he wanted the automobile so badly that he paid $38,000 in cash for it on the spot -and simultaneously became the oldest Camaro buyer on record.
So has the purchase made him a hit with the ladies?
"Well, I try to keep my eyes on the road when I drive, but a lot of ladies at church, or when I go somewhere, come up and ask about the car," he told the news provider.
Good vision is essential to being a safe driver. According to the American Optometric Association, adults over the age of 60 should have an annual eye exam to screen their eye health.
