Don't have one yet but as soon as i see the right one i am going for it. Almost 19 and should have it soon... just in time for drinking age here(good combo).
I went through the whole fast & furious/boy racer thing when i was 13/14 so i decided it is time to get a fast yet functional and tasteful car.
My dad test drove an 8 @ 320hp a few weeks ago so he knows what i am getting into. Though my folks do think i am responsible enough on the road for something like that.

I was 13, couldn't drive the thing for 3yrs, just washed and waxed it (and of course worked my a$$ off to pay for the thing).

When i said 320 i meant it was near stock. I know some of the stock ones in europe are even more than that.

I got mine at 19 and bought it straight cash that i saved up. When we went to see it the guy I bought it from said this car is really fast and my dad said " well thats why we are here". Then we test drive it and my dad pulls me aside and "are you sure you can handle this is really fast". Haha anyway no speeding tickets or accidents yet knock on wood.

39! Maybe it was a mid life crisis- for those on a budget.

28 when i got my VIII in 05. I'm 33 now, still have it. I dont feel this is a car to have as a teenager. Not enough driving experience under the belt at that age. Just my opinion.

^Yeah but a stock Evo really isn't fast IMO, plus it handles so well, and stops so well and is a very easy car to control compared to something thats RWD.
