Props to you if you are able to afford this car at 21. You just gotta realize most 21yo don't have the income to afford a car like this. So logic dictates it was purchased for them.

Most people that age don't realize the consequences of certain actions until it's too late. Obviously there are exceptions as you seem to be but you can't fault people for thinking young kids make stupid decisions some times.

Because statistics. There's a reason it costs a fortune to insure a teenager, much less one with a fast car.

I grew up around people racing cars so I've been taught the consequences that come with that. And yeah that's true about people my age not being able to afford these kind of cars. Anyone else I know my age are driving older cars

I rent (financially bad decision I know), 0 credit card balance, higher credit score than most people.

Sorry if my typing isn't the best. Just got my wisdom teeth pulled and the pain killers are making me wonky.

i disagree. owning a house comes with overhead (more on older houses). then again there are a bunch of factors which can determine if it's worthwhile to rent or own.

not to mention you're very young so your credit score isn't going to be as strong as someone like mr.ken so the banks probably won't give you a mortgage.

again you're proving that you're an exception to the general consensus that young kids be trying to be kewlz.
