Got my Z when i was 16, actually happened to get a great deal on it at the time. Yes my father did happen to buy it for me im not going to ******** and say i had a high paying job at the age of 16 lol. Im currently 18, ive been working since 14 as a DJ. I did happen to make pretty good money for my age a lot more than other kids and ending up saving and going F/I.

I consider myself quite mature for my age due to the fact i am probably the youngest of all my friends and i have been around fast cars even at a young age you could say. Ran the turbonetics kit for about a year at 370 WHP even took it to the track and did a 12.8.

Also just sold the my turbonetics and opted for the Greddy Twins which i actually happend to pickup REALLY cheap did the install myself and now going back for another tune and more power. I do believe i am much more mature for my age and not just another 'teen' with a Z. As far as my father buying me my car, times have changed. Maybe some of us deserve it more than others? Flame on.

If you brag about having no responsibility, you just make yourself look like a tool and instantly lose the respect of 99% of the community. Is it really worth it? Wouldn't you rather save the face rubbing, the fact that mommy and daddy wipe your butt, and just be a respected member of the motoring forum? I seriously don't get kids these days.
Woah. Had no idea you'd take it to the butt. By the way the thread pertains to 17 year olds getting Zs.. I just put my situation out and how I can afford the car. Like you said, it's as easy as working at target making 17 grand a year when you were young.

You can't live on 17 grand a year around here. That's grocery money. If I had a Z when I was 17, I would have been car poor. My parents would have had to pay for my housing, college and the majority of my living expenses in a couple years. I did not have a Z when I was 17. I had an 89 Prelude that was totally paid off because it only cost a few grand.

If your parents are willing to pay for everything for you, go ahead and get a Z. Just don't expect anyone to think anything of you just because you have a car. It's about earning your stuff, not just having it.

Kids.

By the way this thread is about making fun of 17 year olds that have a Z.

Do you really make 17k a year?

1995 Gmc jimmy
2005 Chev blazer
