-1GR8, whats the deal man? Not being a "teenager" i would assume you would behave like an adult. Your comments make you seem like a CHILD. Do realize that you are mocking a "teenager". Whats your goal with that? Sorry but If your complaining about kids driving 350z's and what not, try not acting like a kid..

And please if you think 19 year old's in general cant handle a 280hp car, then you are a bunch of p******.

For those of you wondering, Im 18 years old and make steady monthly payments on my car. I have been working/saving money for my car hobby before i had my license. My parents do not support my hobby, therefore i have literally paid for everything. Bash me if you want. Im fine with that. Because those who bash me probably wish they could have afforded G/Z at my age..



I hate old people ignorance..

I will also add that it worked out great, and I am a nice responsible adult. Something I am sure most of the "teenage" Z/G owners will be.

I would be more inclined to think it is a good thing to be young and be able to maintain a car like this. Even if you get help from your parents, it is still a high level of responsibility to drive and maintain a nice vehicle. I know Trix, and know that he probably works a lot harder than most of you at keeping his ride clean, and in good order.

You dummies are talking about depreciating assets.... First, ahhhh, you own the same car right? So what gives you the right to lecture someone else? Secondly, I am happy to sink some of my well earned money into a depreciating asset. I get great enjoyment out of it, and it is well worth the expense. Is there something wrong with that?

Once again, this just re-enforces what is wrong with this site. Look, I know your intentions are good, but that is not what this site is about. Go to some Fox business forum if you want to spew this BS to the world.

I use this thread to offend as many people as I can and will continue to do so because obviously with over 300k views some people seem to find it entertaining. You are right in saying that I have the same depreciating asset. It was already modded when I got it and I pay people to wash it. Lol at what it cost to mod one of these cars. ***** that, I get the same enjoyment out of mine that someone else dumped all the money into while my savings continue to grow.

I like walking outside and seeing a car that is exactly what I wanted it to be, done by me, and the fruit of my hard work. All the work that goes into making something yours is half the battle. I am the only person that has ever washed my car, and I enjoy every minute of it. I can't even imagine handing over my car (and money) to have someone else wash my car. Buying a used modified car sounds pretty lame; like someone's sloppy seconds to me, like putting my hands all over something that feels like it belongs to someone else.... Errr, no thanks. I'll pay a little extra, and put in a little extra work, to get the maximum enjoyment out of my cars.

Just a quick tidbit that I noticed...several of you were ready to throw FinallyGotaG into the mix with the "teenagers" and start casting your many stones at him as well. Yet, as soon as he mentioned that he served in the AF, the tune mysteriously changed. He shared that particular portion of his life and gained respect. How do you know that these other young guys aren't equally as respectable or courageous in their own right? You don't. If Trix came back and mentioned that he is shipping off next week, would you continue to get your jollies from bashing him up until that day? I would certainly hope not. I think that many of you have lost sight of what this, or any other forum, is meant for. Helpful sharing of knowledge and passion for a common hobby? Yes. Cesspool of hatred and outlet for apparently repressed emotions? No.

Carry on.

My view of young people that serve in the AF for 4 years (6 for people desperate for rank) and get out right away is usually about the same as my view on young teens in general.

Tell me why I should respect someone just for serving?
