Good boy....I wish my sons were just like you. Those wuussus would wear a helmet when they did crap like that. I was impressed when they put that car in the pool that one time and sent me movies of it. But they only wrecked that one car that I know of....damn pansies.

18, just got it last week..I'm working part time to pay for school and my 350z, I obviously have my parents helping me with a place to live, but that's not being spoiled, I'm blessed..if I had to pay rent then I wouldn't have a 350z and pay for school. But as far as maintenace, payments etc..I pay for the car.

Wow, the average 350Z owners is much younger than those Ferrari owners who I believe are mostly around 40 something.

Just to make a note to where this thread has been going to about 350z owners...many Z's now being bought by/bought for teenagers. Not a recommended teenage car. I'm 28 and bought the Z when I was 26 WITH MY OWN HARD EARNED MONEY. No money from mommy and daddy on this one like many threads i've read. If your one of those teenagers and reading this and have a Z just remember mommy and daddy can't bail you out when your locked up for causing an accident, reckless driving,and for racing on city streets.

not a recommended teenage car? bro what else would a teenager want? a celica? a prius? if you are referring to power... this isn't an 03 cobra or anything that powerful. not all teenagers are as stupid as you think. YOU were once a teenager also and i bet you would be arguing my side also that not ALL teenagers are dumba****. YES there are a lot of ignorant and immature teenage drivers, but not ALL.

the Z's are fast enough for this.........I only collect pics of teen age crashes. I have a lot more of the little darlins in action. Check the speed limit sign in the last pic. Think he was doing 30?

Big difference between WANTING and DESERVING. As we all know and tend to forget, driving is a privilege. Kids crash their cars all the time, from clunkers to $100k Mercedes... it is a case by case bases on what a particular kid can be responsible with... that is where parenting comes into play.

The Z handles well but, not great; the tail snaps hard and fast if not careful. The chances of crashing a Z vs another car is much greater, especially when it is a kid with very little behind the wheel experience. The numbers don't lie.

21. Got my 05 enthusiast last May and make my own car, insurance, rent and utilities bills every month. Work 55 to 60 hours a week but its all worth it every time I get behind the wheel of my Z.

i agree 100% with you... teenagers this generation are more wreckless and irresponsible. im 24 and i got my z last april. i was raised with the old fashion mentality of working hard for what you want. and these kids that are getting z's at age 16-18 are just asking for trouble
