Well let's see...
Here's a list of cars I've driven since I was 16 as most of them were loaners from my folks. They are in a general order of usage.
-1986 Ford Ranger (learned to drive stick on this one, also how to replace the clutch)
-1989 Toyota Van (pre-Previa(sp)) "the anti-girlfriend"
-1983 Mercedies Wagon (turbo-diesel, had almost 300k miles on it when my parents gave it away, still running well)
-1990 Toyota Van (still horribly ugly)
-1980 International Scout (it actually had a Nissan turbo-diesel engine)
*-1986 (I think) Ford Escort Wagon (The first car I ever owned! It died a blown-engined death.)
-1998 Honda Accord
-1980s Mazda 323(?)
-1988 Ford Ranger (horrible horrible vehicle)
*-1995 Nissan Altima (2nd car owned, bought senor year of college - was crushed by snowplow in the blizzard of 2003)
-1987 Honda Accord (idle control didn't work so it stalled unless you feathered the gas constantly, driver's side window was stuck 2 inches open, starter went out, muffler was ripped off by a chunk of ice on the road from the blizzard of 2003)
*-1997 Nissan Altima (replacement of 1995 crushed Altima)
*-2003 Nissan Sentra Spec-V (so fun but not fun enough...)
*-2005 Subaru Legacy (first new car for my wifie)
*-2006 Subaru WRX (first new car for me!)
*-2003 Nissan 350Z (best car buying decision yet!)
Ahhhh... the memories.

Let it die. You guys are just jealous! Seriously, this thread shows the immature aggressive personalities of those who a envious. So what if someone younger than you has the same car, so what if they are 17. Afterall you should be happy because someone has the same love for a certain automobile that you have. It doesn't make you any better that you are older than those '17 year olds getting Z's'.
Seriously, why do you feel your better than 17 year old. I know many adults who have damaged cars of a much higher value. If you all were 25 and posting about 17 year olds, does that give someone who is 33 the right to post about you. You'd be pissed.
Yes, there are many dumb 17 year olds, but don't stereotype. There are also many dumb adults...
