"working hard" is realtive. Some thing taking out the trash every week or making good grades is "working hard"

The original thread starter must feel relieved knowing he dsn't need to wear a flame suit. Everyone is shitting on people with grammer. Hey.. Everyone does dumb things. Your young. As am I. Make sure you know where the fence is next time .

As for young people getting Z's. If you are MATURE enough and have the ability to control the capabilities of the car. Then drive away.

Has anyone ever really thought about these "How young is too young" "You crashed bc your immature and reckless" threads......

I am 22 years old which is a decently young age. I am allowed to fly around in multi million dollar aircraft which the tax payers pay for. You all also pay me Thanks. Am I a type A personality....yes. Do I take risks.......you bet. Everyone has a bad day. Hopefully mine isnt a REALLY bad day. Point is that age doesnt mean shi t. Stuff happeneds reguardless.

Cheers to someone who had a little mishap. Its not bc you are young, its not bc you suck at life as some on here love to try and prove to you. Enjoy the car.

well, it's not just younger ppl that drive Z's, it's the younger population in general. It takes a long time to become an experienced driver and statistics say that younger drivers take more wreckless chances and have more accidents due to inexperience. There are certain cars that should wait to be bought until you have the experience.

ppl on here just feel more passionate when it's a Z that gets wrecked.

Who gives a f*ck. The guy just scratched up his car a little bit, its not like he killed a family or something. If you don't push this car to its limits from time to time it makes the car pointless to own, and makes you a *****. Not everyone lives right by a f*cking track, he was at least trying to drift in a parking lot instead of on the road.

Truth. Keep it locked up at the sign of any snow fall.

well it was snowing and the accident happened when he was leaving the parking lot so he was going onto a road. He started it the parking lot but wanted to do it one more time.

just because ppl don't push their car to the limit and drive wrecklessly in a public area doesn't make them pussies.

I dont even know why I have a Z, but i do . Get off my back...)
Im also 17 and had my car since i was 16. I've yet to even get a rock chip, knock on wood, I love to rub it in to all the peeps who hate me for that cuz mines is cleana dan yours hahah

New Rule, people of my age group who suck at driving...don't admit it, you're ruining my insurance, bastards...

I'm 21, and I pay my own way for everything, I bought a piece of **** car, first, then I bought a better POS, then a 05' Scion tC, now I'm on the Z. I hate these discussions, I personally feel age doesn't matter, if someone is gonna be a jackass it isn't age appropriate...people suck no matter what.

i hate this stereotype that young people can't drive Z's... it's ridiculous... it's not like we're driving labourghini's....

anyways i just hope people would rethink their statements before posting..
Im 17 and ive had my z for a year with no tickets, i never speed unless im in a hurry and still dont go more than 5-10mph over, i have yet to get even a rock chip on my beautiful shiny Z
