4 years ago when I was 17, my parents bought me the v6 I have today (well, stock of course). I didn't know what to say; I was so happy, yet so humbled. I felt even after all the work I was putting into all of my grades, volunteering, and college applications, including my behavior and help around the house(while every other senior was catching senioritis), I felt I there was no chance in heck that I deserved what I had just been given and even told my parents that.

Moral of the story: be thankful for what you have, enjoy the fact that you received a new v8 at the ripe age of 17 (I know you haven't looked at your car insurance bill; look at it next time), save up your money for post-graduation, and respect your dad by focusing on grades, not "looking fancy".

Oh, and Camaros are awful.

Well said! I work extremely hard to keep my grades up, on all my college apps, etc. etc. just like what you said. I'm just grateful to have a car! Let alone a V8!!

Basically him talking about wanting to look "good when he arrives at the university in a new 2011 mustang" and stuff like that.

If you hate it so much, sell it and wait for the price to drop on the 11's... And be grateful that you got a GT at your age! I'm grateful for mine and just grateful to have a car!
just so you know he's 27...yea, 27
