I've made that argument before. How do 20-somethings come up with $50k to buy a new X and fully mod it? I know there are a few silver spooners out there but they can't be the majority.

Older people like to have fun too. I know I'll probably be driving something fun when I'm that age.

My dad is 58 and daily drives an VIII MR.

I've seen people in their 70's - 80's in STi's. On time an old lady in an Sti tried to race my ex- girlfriend in her golf. It was the coolest thing ever

I'm an old dude (48) daily driving an 8, and I think I'm to young for the X.

that is great , when you able to finance the your own, after you got it. ANd you should be proud to do that.
But the co-signer, considered as a help , be thank full for your mom, so dont say it: " bought my evo with no help from any1".

No picking just a future reference.

i could have bought the car outright cash no problem i only financed 10k to help me build credit i work off the books at all 4 of my jobs o.O so i say without help b.c the financing was only to help me in the long run with credit, but i no wat u mean and im thankful for my mom everyday
