If you are 19 and you did get your 8 legitimately from your own hard work, then congrats, but most people that age couldn't dream to afford a car that expensive.

Ofcourse it's no rx8 but these days we have to consider the economics when buying cars.

sounds like your stereotyping the income earning abilities of the average 19 year old. I know a few that make bundles of cash as programmers in the gaming community. One guy I know makes more now than I could barely dream of...albeit he's certainly not your average 19 year old! He's 21 now and drives a 350Z and wants to upgrade to a 911 :p AND....he dropped outta college.

Geez Louise - I had no idea I would stir up so much controversy.....yikes!!!!
but actually if you think about it - most 19yr olds that have an 8 are not your typical 19yr old...thats not to say there isnt something to be said about those who do not have one.....everyone's situation is different.....we should just all be grateful that we have one regardless of the circumstances surrounding our ownership.....I know I am!! :D
