Welcome to the sight Morpheus. If you use the search feature of the site, you will see many people have already accepted their Z's and have posted pictures and opinions.

Don't let anyone here scare you off regarding age.

Welcome,
Todd

Hey Morpheus welcome,

I say if you can afford it then get it regardless of age. Hell it's a steal at $24K, just don't rice it up, hehe.

BTW if you wanna read about Skylines and stuff go over to www.freshalloy.com , their forum has a section for the GT-R and a lot of owners in the US post there so you can get a lot info.

Since i have already decided to buy it im gonna get a good deal since my uncle is a regional manager of nissan, I get 10 % off of dealers cost. I figured i can get a Z for about 20-24k.
Morpheus,

Welcome aboard.

If you already have $24K in your saving account, get one and I'll happy to help you break it in nicely until you turn 16.

Morpheus,

daytona350z is 16, he worked hard for many years and saved up enough money to pay for 3/4 of his Z. See this thread => https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....3627#post53627

If you start your saving early, study hard, work hard, get a good paying job, sooner or later you will have money to buy this car, just like most of the folks in this forum.

I don't think folks in this forum are against teenager in general. Both my kids are teenager.

The last 2 weeks were tough for Ricky. You have to read his threads and draw your own conclusion.

Oh, BTW, you should go to bed now. You have school tomorrow.

Not eaxctly true. I think that a lot of people don't agree with a teen being GIVEN a $30K car by mommy and daddy. If the teen is actually working for the money to buy the car than he will appreciate the car and realize what $30K is and how hard it is to make that kind of money.

I have said that I don't think that a super fast sports car is ideal for a first car because young drivers may get into trouble with that much power. Also insurance may be 2 times greater than for a normal car.

Morpheus, regardless of the problems with inexperience driving a high-HP car, I would encourage you not to take on such a high-debt obligation so young.

Putting yourself in such a position could cause you to become a "slave to the grind" far too early, and you could find yourself sacrificing more important stuff like school so you can have a job to pay for your short-term debt.

It may not be easy, but perhaps the best thing to do is get an older car with cheap insurance, and save as much as you can. Even a 2-4% bond is better than a -5% car + insurance.

Just some thoughts...

that's agreat idea. That insurance is a killer. Don't worry about production being stopped, chances are in 3-4 years they will improve whatever problems it has and may give it even more hp.
