Whenever one of these threads come up, I can never figure out why the original author felt so strongly about this. The 'kids' on here that have these cars, me being one of them, are lucky to have what they have; however, I don't think it's fair to label teenagers with nice cars as all being spoiled, rotten kids. You'll never see me making a smoking u-turn or telling people I drive a BMW.

If you're going to post a thread about 'kids having nice cars,' maybe you should talk about the attitude that accompanies the cars. Not all of us that drive BMWs are ungrateful and not all of us flaunt our 'spoiled gifts.' I wash and wax my car weekly, and I baby it to death. I also park my car 7 blocks away from school, for fear that someone like you won't understand and will do some sick act and defile the car, and honestly, I think it's really sad that I have to do that - that people are so enraged by the sight of someone 'less worthy' than themselves driving a nicer car.

As a member of this forum, I contribute to best of my ability. I'm on post 568 in just 2 months and I have started many threads and even written a DIY. Outside of my car life, I'm a senior in high school. My GPA this semester is 4.5 and I'm currently taking 4 AP classes. In addition to my academics, I'm a freelance graphic designer/photographer. I also run a server from my home computer, which I use to host files/websites for individuals as well as voice communication servers. Does all of this mandate some right for me to drive a BMW, no. But I'd challenge you to meet me in person and decide for yourself if I'm the stereo typical spoiled teenager.

There are plenty of kids that act like kids, but there are also plenty of adults that act like kids as well.
