+1- Heck if my pops paid my house note, my grocery bills, my electric and water bills, and still bought me clothes I could afford a new Ferrari F430 and still have money left over every month for gas. lol-

 

i think is ok because i have a Z im only 16 and u know i paid for it myself ive been saving up since im a lil kid not because i wanted a car ...just because i thought well if i want something expensive and it comes out of no were, then i will have the money to afford it ...and yes thats what happend,my parents gave me money weekly and i used that money to eat in school and also to save up. and also ive bought myself so far when i was a kid a ticket to go to Dominican Republic(just the ticket),an ipod(i was 15), game cube(it was a few months after it came out)) and stuff like that because i never knew when something expensive came out and i wanted to buy it.....now i have a Z ...i still work...and that thing that kids wanna run and crap u shouldnt give them a Z....u know most cars go to 100mph ...common now some of my friends have 93 jeeps and they race regardless so basically what im saying is u give em a corolla they will race if u give them a corvette they will still race. its just a matter of how the person is...for me i dont race at all i know i got that car out of my money and i feel poor since i bought it..and i dont want to spend more money because i wrecked it.

 

fixed.

 

Uh-oh better get Maaco.

Sounds like a kick a$$ custom paint job YOUR PARENTS paid for. Who goes into a body shop and says "Can you paint my car gray? I want it to be really unique and I think Gray would be fabulous".

Seriously, stop while you're way behind and let the adults do the typing.

 

Heh, I can't wait until one of your commanding officers catches you cursing him out behind his back.

 

Daddy will take care of him.

 

I have a general hate for Is there a general hate for blank? threads. But I have learned to live with it.

 

Is there a General Hate towards Teenages who own Zs?

No, there is a general hate towards teens that own any type of "sports/gt" vehicle. It sucks.. but when i turn old and rinkly i'm sure i would b!tch at kids with any car, even at 3 year olds with those plastic 5hp motor hummer thingy's.

It's life... nothing is ever fair. If it was... i would know the worlds most confusing question, "What do women really think about." Oh wait.. money! Wow life seems so clear now!!!

 

Boy, we are a contentious lot! I've "looked at life from both sides now," and I believe my personal experience is not the end-all and be-all. I would have LOVED to have had a Z when I was a teen-ager. I'm grateful to have one now in crazy middle-age. Bye y'all

 

Agree completely. Concurrence achieved, communication = successful!

*high five*

 

Im 19 with a Z im a student and i worked all through high school to afford and pay off my truck and i sold it to get the Z. I have a great respect for the car and the people who drive them and i think if u do the same u wont have any problems

 

I would hope to think there isn't hate towards teens with Z's but I would be wrong. I understand how people can hate on a teen with a Z. I mean it's a nice fairly priced sports car that most teens can't usually afford. So when you see a teen driving around a nice sports car you can help but to think that they think there better then every one else on the streets even thought they didn't earn it themselves. That's the way I think older people view it.

I personally don't like to have my window down when driving because I know what most people are thinking when they see behind the wheel of a car that looks out of my price range for an 18 year old, then again I don't ever go around all smug thinking I'm better then anyone else. I believe if you're parents can afford one for you then take it. You have one life and might as well make it as fun as you can. My parents got me my Z for 3 reasons;

1. For my image for when I'm in real estate.
2. My last car (1992 accord) was a POS and my parents don't like me being in a unreliable car.
3. They want me to be happy and have what they didn't.

Those are the ways I see it and hope people won't hate me because of what I drive, I'm no way snobby and I do know the price of a penny, and have been raised very well. I mean hell I just got drunk for my first time about two weeks ago and I'm 18. I don't get out much and I only hang out with only maybe 4-5 friends EVER. When I have kids I won't spoil them but I will make them learn work and appreciation before I start the giving.

There will always be hating towards younger drivers by most older drivers, it's just how it is. I care but what can I do. I just don't hope that what I drive alters what a person will like me or not, because that would be basically judges a book by it's cover which we all know most of the times you will see allot of the sh!tty covers will have good stories behind them.

 

Noob!

 

I threw up after my first two glasses of Malibu passion fruit mixed with diet Dr. pepper That got me buzzing, then I had four glasses of Smirnoff then I found myself out in the desert with my friend at 4 A.M. Running down cars and trying to find a nicos because I was hungry....... I must admit though it was fun.

 

I cannot stand babys with Z's....... They need to raise the Z's price!!! I think im gonna go trade my car in now..... Prob get a 70's beater.....

 

So let me get this straight, I just read 24 pages about young people owning a Z



All i can say is Wow

Cheers

IMO - This thread seems like it has too many teens saying they bought there Z's all on their own stories. I'm 18 and can admit my parents bought my Z for me. I don't see how a 16,17, maybe 18 can afford a Z all on their own? I know they have a place to live, clothes, food for free but unless there buying a used Z for around 17 k then I don't see how they can say they bought there Z's with out their parents help but even that's still hard to believe they can pay for.

Unless they some how already got there self into a steady career were they can afford a 30+ k car new. I'm trying to get into real estate with my parents as my teachers so I can finally afford to mod my car how I want. This is just my thought on this whole thread and I don't want to offend the teens in here that are being completely honest with there hard workings to afford a nice car such as the Z all on there own, I mean it's alright to admit your parents bought it for you or maybe even helped. There just probably self cautious of what the older members may say to bring them down?

What ever the situation it's still just a car and it's still your life live it how you can, and take what you can before you go into the real world and work for everything you get. Some people are fortunate, some people aren't as lucky. It's just the way it is and I wish it were different but it's not. You can only just appreciate what you can get and hope you get what you work for later in life.

 

dude I read all your threads and your just a smart a$$ punk kid when it comes down to it (and a few others too). Good for you your parents gave you your car at least you will have something to reflect upon when you get into the "real world". but that aside, all in all you wouldn't make it a week around here with that smart *** attitude before you got your a$$ kicked and ran off...... Hey there are always going to be people of all different ways of life who are more privileged than others.. and hey I worked hard for my $hit but I can admire a nice ride and not hate regardless of who owns it and how he got it. but if my parents said here have a Z you think I would have said no thanks...hell no I would have taken for sure. I am just tired of the $mart a$$ punk attitudes that are prevalent in todays society

 

All these kids own ICE......

 

That picture just gets funnier every time I see it.
