Most 18 year olds don't have a lot of bills, so if he has been working a job consistently since 15 or so and saving all his money it is well within the realm of possibility. A part time job at minimum wage would still net someone around $20k which can just about pay for an '09 model these days.

People typically run out of capability/talent far before a sports car like a Z does that why there is VCD.

Next time have dad take the car to an autocross or drift session. Much cheaper than sprining car and hitting hard stuff .
