Ok, so my son just turned 18. He has a Honda Accord that he built up pretty stout. Engine swap, coilovers, suspension ect... I think it is something like 300 hp on spray. He really wants to get into an F-body now. He's found a pretty decent 99 Z28 with some mild mods and high miles. Two questions for you guys, do you think a mild F-body is to much for an 18 year old? And what do you guys think abou the price and mod list? I drove the car, and it runs pretty well, and it's very clean, just High miles. Here's the link to the ad: http://norfolk.craigslist.org/cto/1561183126.html
What do you guys think? |

I'm 19. drove a 93 z28 as a first car for a month before i got hit (i was stopped at a light sitting still) and it was totaled. then i got my 00' trans am. i've raced a few people and done some stupid things, but never anything life threatening or seriously idiotic. i've calmed down a LOT in the short time i've had it. never gotten a ticket in it either.
i feel that i'm a lot more responsible than most people my age, but i think it has a lot to do with the fact that i payed for it myself and have to pay for insurance. i've also modded it myself and know exactly what it can do. i have nothing to prove to the kids who get m3's, is-f's, and sti's as first cars in my town and pay nothing for them. they have no respect for their cars and what they are. i mod/maintain my car myself and have pride in it, so i'm not going to do anything that may result in serious damage to it or loss of my license. i really don't think most people my age should have fast cars, but there are some that can handle it. |
