I wasn't really referring to any of your posts specifically, because you have your head on straight and recognize/appreciate what you have. And you're totally right about most people's first reaction to a teenager driving a BMW. I think the fact that an older BMW goes for the same as a new Corolla just makes the perception of a BMW being expensive stronger and a little bit of jealousy or resentment takes over. In any case, enjoy the car, that's why you got it.
