OMG Wow all the vids broke page four. Preety crude yet o so true.........

OP, its not just cause of age, theres alot of young people here (myself included) but the fact that not only A. its your first car but also B. your not paying a cent for it deserves this kind of responses. I can speak for almost everyone here and tell you those are major grounds for failing epically. I pray you'r always in traffic in NY and cant speed with your new car...... Oh and.....



EDIT:
i was thinking of putting that red tape around the rims, what is that called and how do you do it? if i go to the shop, what do i have to say?
dear god i had missed that part.......... ugghhhhh

op, i totally understand why u want a Z, I was there when I was 17, but I would recommend you take my route, get a honda civic, save the money go to racing schools, when u r 25+, and u kno u can control the car well, then get Z. It's not the car that grabs attention and respect, it's the driver.

Why was the scene from FandF the first thing that came into my head when I just read that? When he said he only had his pink slip and only wanted respect...lol...sorry.

Problem is kids that are young think they are the **** when they have a fast car. All ricers I ever run into are HS kids with civics that look like they were modded with Kmart parts and try and race me.

A 17 year old with a Z, go get a corolla.

My 2nd car was almost a cobalt when i was 18.. lol but I got a corolla, for the gas living half hour from my job. Never got it for the speed, obviously, ended up saving me tons on gas though.

But I was never handed a car, I just worked since I was 2 and started with a tempo at 15. I think people need to work to get what they want, not gift wrapped. You appreciate it more.

I asked him "Is the torque steer bad on that?"

He said "Yeah, it's got almost 300"

The car already looks good! After your comment about tape on the rims, I gotta suspect your desire to make the car look good = rice.

Really - there is a big difference between what you want and what you need. For a first car (regardless of who is buying it), the Z is probably not the best. You may think you know how to drive because you have have driven some, but in all likelihood it will take several years or more before you are really proficient - especially with a car of the Z's caliber.
