I work a full time job and go to college, and have been saving for well over three years for a new car. Basically since I bought by crap car I started saving.

I live at home, but still pay rent, also pay for college out of my own pocket (5-6k a year, which is cheap right now).

Excessive amounts of work and the ability to save money in the bank.
Is it really that hard to believe that someone younger then you can afford a 370Z?

Uhh, it's also called: having wealthy parents.

In my neighborhood, Palos Verdes Peninsula, some high school kids, yes high schoolers drive brand spanking new E92 M3's, Lexus ISF's, current Porsche 911's and the likes. $30,000+ cars are just the tip of the ice berg. The craziest I've ever seen is one high school kid roll up in a brand spanking new Porsche GT2...no kidding. I highly doubt that dad would let jr. take his $200,000+ car just to rub in the kids' faces. Daddy bought it for him.

Yeah I know, some people pour their blood, sweat and tears to get the 370.

40 and this is my first Z
This would be interesting to see by country, as I'm certain if this was done in the UK, the higher numbers would be in the older age groups.
