I consider myself to be pretty mature and responsible, but when you're that young, there's no doubt that you'll get in trouble with the 370z because you'll have the urge to drive fast. I got a ticket a month after I got my license, and I've learned my lesson. You'll want to floor it when Mustangs/Camaros/whatever pull up next to you at a red light and rev their engine. It's hard to say what one accident can do to you because you're going from 140hp to 332hp, which is a huge leap.

My recommendation is that you get a Genesis 2.0T/Civic Si/328i coupe, those are around 200 horse power and great looking cars. I personally think you're more concerned with the look of the car than the performance/handling.

No matter what car you get, drive responsibly and use your head.
