I don't want to start a e-thread-war

I'm lame. I did have a civic as my first car (I'd call that responsible parenting). I'm actually trying to purchase an early 90s civic for a DD now. Can't argue with 50mpg and trunk space - makes sense to me. But yeah, I guess I'm boring.

You're right, I'm a crap driver and I'm scared to drive a car fast.

makes zero sense to have a Z and not want to drive it fast.

you paid your money do what you want just don't ever tell me that people who do use the car for it's purpose are idiots and deserve to have the car taken away. if you can be lame with yours let the rest of us enjoy ours.

I guess I have to make sure my son's first car is a civic, so I can be a "responsible parent"

I think a econobox is a good car to to teach a kid responsibility and humility. But I'm boring.


On a related note, a kid at my high school got a viper for his first car. Rolled it and his parents bought him a landrover.
