2002 Protege5

http://forums.dfwmiata.com/showthread.php?t=15750

my parents made me work by mowing yards since I was 12

when I turned 16 I finaly got my first car a gsx awd turbo 5 speed

that lasted 3 months and they told me they let me get it as a test

get him a ford taurus, I had one I loved it(97 loaded with black exterior and peanut butter leather interior)

and you considering an m3... thats about the most idiotic parent move ever

So no to a Z06?
jk - as was the M3.

Thanks for the feedback guys.

As a matter of fact, there was a girl at my highschool that got a brand new E30 M3 when she turned 16. :rolleyes:

I'm not THAT old! It was a red 1990 E30 M3. Looked just like the one below.

She was a year or 2 younger than me, and I don't recall ever actually meeting her. She was kinda like royalty in the town I grew up in. Her grandfather owned the Seattle Seahawks at the time and had one of the most impressive private car collections in the world.

Hmmm...is she single? ;)







Sorry for the thread jack.

No clue, but a search of the internet shows that she got a doctorate from Columbia a few years ago, so she would probably be a pretty good catch even without the family money! ::Banana::

Ken, what does your son want to get?

He really doesn't have a strong opinion.

Ford Ranger. It will support his height, you can use it to haul stuff, and large groups will take someone else's car.

Might not be allowed in his neighborhood. HOA Nazi's might come after him!

Great suggestion! In addition, the limits of adhesion are so ridiculously low, he can learn handling techniques at low speed. Seriously.

So how long have you been stalking her? And does Bj know about this? ;)

I got a VW Golf diesel as my first car and it had been wrecked, no grill, no bumper cover, turn signals coat hanger wired to the radiator, no paint on the hood or fender. Slow as a dog, but had great gas mileage and cold a/c.
$500.
