GT500 as first car

Flaguy · 06-26-2012, 11:12 AM

Thats a bit rediculous. No kid should be operating a vehicle capable of 200ish mph. Thats crazy. Look, i know there are responsible kids out there, but giving a kid this for his first daily driver vehicle...are you fuggin kidding me? I'm all for the kid getting a really nice car, as a parent i wish i could drop coin like that on my kid and not flinch, but damn. Get him a Beamer, or a 370z, a lexus. Let the kid learn to drive first. A 640hp, 200mph car at 16yrs old? REALLY?!!! He doesn't even know the basics, hydroplaning, driving in heavy rain, snow, monitoring your mirrors at all times, the instinct of knowing what another driver MIGHT do before he does it, etc. etc. etc.

I think it would be retarded personally. Not my kid though...
