High School Evo Owners?
there is a sophomore at my school that just got a brand new lotus exege s and a junior girl that just got a brand new 2007 carrera 4s ( 90k sticker) so i dont feel bad about the evo

In hindsight, if my parents bought me a car like this in high school and I had any kind of judgment, I would use money from my own job to buy a beater DD and garage/build/pamper the car until I was 20.
In HS I know I was probably one of the smartest kids among my friends, with my head screwed on straight, but that doesn't mean I wasn't 17 and still a f*ing moron with zero life experience or responsibility to be driving a performance machine with any kind of restraint or caution.

im only 16 and im hoping to get an evo. Most people say high schoolers are too young for evo's but who cares what others say! If you really want one and aren't gonna crash it than it doesnt matter about age; only maturity.
I have an evo and im 16. I am paying for it on my own to 390 a month sucks with 14000 down!!!! Only thing parents are helping me with is insurance 
Im working 2 jobs though and had to quit motocross to get it tho...

So what is a Responsible age to own a evo? lol.... I wouldnt want a evo in high school.. well ok i would, but i wouldnt want the payments, Im 21 own a 98 eclipse, a 2006 kawasaki zx10r, and a 2008 evo X.. i pay for all 3 and all 3 insurances on my own. But Do i race on the highway? I wont lie, yes. The crowds i hang out with and race? 25 + ... so what is a mature age to the guys here?
but anyway my first car was a corolla that i payed for myself right after i got outta high school. 2 years later im in college and my dad co-signed for the Evo. work full time and go to school full time. the good thing is i still live at home :-)
Just because you race your car doesnt mean your not mature. Its all in the individual and how they act and drive. I consider myself with my cars pretty mature with my decisions. All my friends race all the time but when we race its late at night on a long straight highway usually just from a roll having fun not trying to break landspeed records during rush hour. I get the point that younger kids are more prone to drive fast and beat things up I see it everyday, but then again its not everykid
Your life will outlive your evo...don't sacrifice your future for just a car.
No offense, I love cars, I love evos, but I knew school had to come first, and look at me. I'll be a college junior next year and will have my evo.
im a senior in high school but i bought the evo when i was a junior with my life savings....just got a partial scholarship to saint johns for 40k and got into seton hall plus i worked 3 jobs to get it...yeah i think i deserve it
