The kid who owns that 'stang is smart....... probably deserves it. See how she parked it in the end stall hugging the curb to protect that fine ride?
A kid that shows good judgement like that should be rewarded.

It all depends on the relative environment. Looking at this from a psychological perspective, if you live in a really nice area and everyones first car is a bimmer, mercedes, or even a ferrari, well then you're not exactly spoiled for getting a new GT at 16. Now, that is obviously one end of the spectrum. At the other end, if you compare us to another country/continent like say Africa as nothsa did, well then everyone here is extremely spoiled seeing as we are sitting here on our computers on the internet talking about cars when most people there probably cannot even begin to comprehend the concept of a car, let alone a computer. Thus, all in all, you cant technically call someone spoiled. Thats essentially an opinion, which ofcourse everyone is entitled to. We've all got the new stangs and thats pretty cool, weather your 15 or 60. (Sleeper 05, so "u" started a business huh? thats impressive. btw, USC=University of Spoiled Children.lol)

Don't say someone is so smart because of where they park. It was probably the first available spot. I've seen it parked between 2 cars several times.
"Not to be a smarta$$ or anything, but aren't you more concerned about your (future) kids safety than the car?
One of the plus sides of having a nice new car is the safety. I don't think it really matter's what car a teenager drives because we are still going to speed, and with a POS car the chances of getting seriously injured in a minor accident are much greater than getting injured if you were in a car that was safer.
IMO, when I grow up I will buy my kids a safe car (even if it is really expensive), even if they deserve it or not.

If safety is an issue buy your kid a 100hp honda. I'd say that is much more safe than a 300hp stang.

JStang :: -1, untrue when i'm extremely close with my parents and they bought me a Mustang. My dad cared enough about getting me a nice car he didn't get an 06 Corvette, he put the money toward my car and got a Mustang for himself too.

LOL, again thats funny because i'm only seventeen and in less than 6 months i'll be running my own business when I turn 18 on my OWN while attending college. If you're look at intelligence, I don't think you are very bright because I have nothing to worry about and am laughing at how successful I am going to be compared to you.

I'm really scratching my head here at your sanctimonious attitude. You seem to be quite disproportionately offended by these comments here.

You never know. Maybe the kid built the car with his dad. I restored two muscle cars in high school with my dad. Hundreds of hours of hard work. I appreciated those two cars possibly more than anything I've ever owned.
