Teenagers and 400+ hp machines are not agood mix, regardless of income level.

Side note, that car looks amazing underneath.

Wow! Glad you are okay.
 

Hey, I'm new to the forum. I'm very glad that you are fine. Did all of the airbags deploy? I feel very safe in my X5.:whew:

Pathetic! When you are 19 you still have so much to learn about everything like for example how to drive. So giving a 400HP car to a teenager is just plain stupid IMO, rich or not. At 18 I crashed my dad's car, Alpha Romeo Alfetta 2l which only picked around 150HP at the time. This was all my fault, I lost traction on a curve while accelerating hard on a wet road and I thought I knew how to drive! I can remember the face of the old man when I told him :-)
So I can imagine with almost 3 times more HP.

He is just reporting the story. ;)

Dang, guys like him are why I pay so much for my car insurance. Just not fair being lumped in the same age brackets as these morons. Only 5 more years.

Pretty cool picks though. Thank god his parents got him something this safe so he didn't kill somebody.

Are you serious? How is this safe? Hope this is sarcasm...

You don't escape death every time, even in a BMW. Remember the story of 5 kids in airborne BMW M5 earlier this year.

If these kids in M3 were doing 90+ it would have been a different story.
Some people like speed but remember
Speed kills.

With great POWER comes great RESPONSIBILITY. Drive Responsibly.

I'm saying in regards to the safety of the vehicle. Not saying the driver's actions were in any way justified. Imagine if that was an old mustang or a suv or something like that, they'd all be dead. Thank God he didn't end up killing one of his friends.

all I hear is "blah,blah,blah I wish I was 19 again"
