no hate man...just don't see any logical reason to give a 17 year old kid a whip like that. since my parents always made me pay insurance,please believe even if they could have I wouldn't have been rollin in that whip...a nice Range tho...Originally Posted by iBlink
This dude newbery got that hate in his system.
We all know different standards apply to different classes fam. If dudes pops can afford to drop 80K on a benz (should've went with a BMW imo, but I digress), then so be it. That's the man's son; how he rewards his kid is at his own discretion.
the most well put response so far in this thread, thanks for putting it how I couldn'tOriginally Posted by LazyJ10
I have no problem with the price tag of the car.....enough kids push M3s on NT which isn't exactly cheap.
What I do have issue is, no way a 17yr old should have the power of these cars, yet. They've been driving for what, a year? And let's be real, when we were that age (those of us in our 20's +), you feel invincible. Nothing can really happen to you, etc.
Parents should/need to recognize that.
They want to get him an $80k, that's fine...but don't make it a damn race car. It's just a bad mix to me, young and speed often leads to terrible decision making.

Why should people dictate what you can and cant have? I was a good kid, made good grades and my parents were fortunate enough to reward me w/ nice things. What was I suppose to do? Tell them to buy me a ford focus? Those same parents complaining would've taken a free benz too..Originally Posted by High Class Scum Bag

hate it when parents do this...regardless of whether you got the $ or not, you aren't old enough to appreciate something that expensive. Props to the Bill Gates of the world who keep their kids humble, and who have them probably driving CIVICS. On a side note my first car was a 1985 Ford Escort that couldnt even go on the freeway, and I toweled it off better than that after a washing son.
i hate reading stuff like this...if you're parents could by you a GTR @ 17 what would you do? turn it down because you're too young to appreciate it? S T F U
When I was 19 I was pushing a 80k S500 to college and i heard a lot of the same comments this kid is getting on this thread...As soon as I got the car everyone wanted to turn dectective and figure out how I got the car, how much my parents made..Even my friends parents would try to tell my mom and dad they shouldnt have got me such an expensive car.
It's very likely that the car is his. I just met a kid who got an SL 65 for his 18th birthday and he's getting 8M wired into his bank account in a few weeks for graduating high school.
As far as the tags, I'm new to CA so I don't know the laws. But in TX if you buy a used car the plates come with it.
whats wrong with what they said? truth hurts sometimes
Anyways, congrats to the OP on the new car....Be safe.
That too. I remember at 17, it had just snowed, and I wanted to go to my girls place (30 minutes away by car), but my parents hadn't had thewinter tires installed yet. It took a lot of bugging on my part, but they somehow decided to trust me with it anyways. I didn't think @*%* would happen tome, I thought I was the best driver out there. I was doing 30km/h when I should of been doing 10km/h in a sharp turn in her neighborhood, Car did not turn ATALL, and the front left wheel rammed the side of the sidewalk...and @+$%%@ the axel, or whatever up. All I know is the wheel was crooked, and I was ready tomake a run for Mexico.Originally Posted by LazyJ10
