An no you don't need to sell drugs to make a good living lol

Everything I own I bought myself.

On a side note, I make a little more than that but... who cares??? We're all family and as long as you enjoy your car, who cares what age you are.

No need to get upset, just communicate your POV civilly and most people will probably respect what you have to say. I know if I have the money in the future, I'd buy my future son/daughter a nice car, but I don't know if I'd buy him/her a high HP sports car... I guess b/c I'd be concerned about them. But that's just me

The Nissan 350z has a 5star safety rating thus bring down the price for the insurance. i Pay $950 for six months. Yes that is it. So the Insurance company is not stupid and know exactly what their doing for letting a 16y old driving a 287hp vehicle.
