a bit of it is jealousy, but also a bit of it is stats.
I cannot could the number of times younger kids (frick that makes me feel old saying that) have tried to race me on public streets. Now we have all been there, done stupid shit but thankfully they are in beaters, civics, grand ams, cavaliers, sunfires etc. But when you talk about cars with 300+hp it puts a HUGE elephant in the room. I have read numerous articles that include a sub 20yr old and a fast car, the results are not good. I know you say you are responsible, but throw a pretty girl in the picture your other head starts thinking for you, trust me it will happen, dont kid yourself. its happened to all of us, we all want to show off, its in our nature. Just because you have driven fast cars in a straight line does not mean you know how to drive. My car is slow, 185hp slow...in a straight line, however i have tracked and auto-x my car numerous times and have a general idea of how cars react in a variety of situations, can you say the same. Around a track i am faster than some cars with twice my power... Best way to learn how to drive is to take a very very well handling car with low power (<200hp) and go to town. keiichi tsuchiya's exacts words. Then when you upgrade to the power you really know how to drive, properly.

and yours doesn't? To me with your rant you want people to feel sorry for you that you had to work for 6 cars? Good for you. I paid for 7 years of University, meh. We all have to pay the bills sooner or later

16 wow. Just don't go kill yourself, coz you need to take advantage of all the female attention you're gonna get. I had a threesome in an old Ford escort once, if I had a bimmer at 16 I reckon I could have had an orgy. Good luck man. |

Enjoy the car OP and be careful. I realize you weren't trying to come off as cocky, it's just the way some people are going to interpret it. My folks are wealthy and I've always had nice cars and all but once you sort of grow out of that umbrella you gain a different sort of worldview, it's weird.
Ha. No hate

I've said it before, you can't beat experience when you're determining whether a driver is good.
People shouldn't be commenting on whether the OP is fortunate/spoilt. The only real debate is whether a parent should give a 16 year old a car like this as their first. No matter how much I trusted my son, there's no way I'd let him have anything this quick at 16. I'd just worry too much, I know how over confident 16 year olds can be... |

Pics of said car? Hard to give mod advice without.
I had a 2004 mazda6 v6 in high school bought new when I was 17. I just sold it this past summer after putting 150k on it still looking showroom new. Now I have a e92 328i, I'm 26 now. I never wrecked the car and I knew several others who had cars which were considered faster I.e. over 200hp and lived not to total them...Granted though cars are a lot faster these days so be careful haha. Enjoy the car and take care of it! |

I really appreciate all the positive comments, but I don't understand why some people want me to crash so badly, my brothers first car was an r32 and he didn't crash once, and my dad is buying me this car because he knows I'm not a dumbass, it's called trust
