not really the car I would expect people to give you shit about but yes. you will not respect or appreciate the car as much as if you had bought it yourself and that's a fact.

Well you didn't. I mean I really don't give a fuck, but you're not gonna hear the end of it.

>>14912790
what doesn't count? The status? Well duh you didn't earn shit. Other wise why does it matter if you drive a fun as fuck car

No, as long as you're not a cunt and shove what your parents bought you in other people's faces, I don't care.

Frankly, I wish my parents bought me a car. Given the current state of American schools where kids have to work more and more, homework is measured in hours, and school days last longer, I don't exactly fault kids for not getting jobs. Shit, the job market in some places are absolutely abysmal. I used to work manual labor jobs to earn cash during high school, and now those jobs are being replaced for dirt cheap illegal labor.

It's because it's a 350Z.
If it was a 15-20 year old econobox no one would give a shit. You shouldn't buy your kid a sports car

ain't nothing wrong with having nice things bought by your parents. If you were a parent and you could afford it, you'd do the same. Just don't go around acting like a "baller".

>>14912790
well yeah.
>autist kids parents buy him a nice car

>>14912830
Why not?

Not trying to be a special snowflake, but while my parents didn't buy me a car, I did drive my dad's Porsche 944 and Cayman GTS. It wasn't hard, and while they are on the slower side for sports cars they never felt overwhelming.

Then again, I mostly drive like an old woman.

people respect cars because of the hard work it takes to get a decent one

you didnt do the work so you dont get respect

>>14915350
So you're here on /o/ to offer your respect to people who at one point had enough money to buy a nice car? I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say probably not.

Cars are cool machines and people take an interest in them because they do neat things like go fast and skid and massage our butts. Presumably you're here to talk about that stuff, not how everyone affords their car.

What sort of ghetto trash are you talking about "respect" all the time when you just mean money?

>>14913030

Yes. You didn't earn it, your mommy earned it, and you'll wrap it around a tree within a year.

No. Lucky you. It's hardly a super expensive exotic anyway.

I love the mustang. I just hate the culture around the mustang.

Don't act superior because of something your parents accomplished. That is all.

My grandpa died and I got his 2003 GMC Senoma and his 1999 Buick Park Avenue Ultra. I don't think it's an issue, but I'm sure some more poor people are bitter

I got 10k from my grandmother when I turned 18 from investments.

My parents knew that she invests a small amount of money each time a grandchild is born, but didn't know that there was so much. I didn't know there was any money for me until she gave me a check when I saw her a week after my 18th. I haven't bought a car yet, but I'll be doing it soon.

Is this the same thing?

Paying back an older generation for gifts is retarded. You're just setting that money up to get taxed again.

Them giving you gifts is a way to beat the IRS and give you a leg up in life at the same time, not just spoil you for no reason. Trust their judgement and help them out if they end up really needing help.

>>14912790
>if mommy and daddy bought it, it doesn't count

Of course it doesn't. If you are still living under their financial protection, you haven't yet made a life of your own.

In order to be a truly good person, you should experience both success and failure, where the risks you take don't always work out. You should experience what it's like to be hopelessly poor as well as wealthy. If you have a lot of life experience, you'll appreciate things more.

>>14916917

Not really but if anyone asks just say you cashed in investments to buy the car

>>14912790
It's fine to have it, but generally people treat gifts differently than they treat a car they've bought with their own money. There are a bunch of retarded rich chinese kids near where I live with astons and m6s and shit, and every couple of weeks I see one of them crashed on the road, and a few weeks later a brand new SL63 or something being driven by yet another 21 year old chinese kid

There's no real status awarded merely for car ownership, but buying your own car with money you've worked for is an actual accomplishment in life

>>14912790

I'm not upset unless you take something like a 350z you didn't have to pay for for granted and don't take good care of it and drive like a retard and mod it like a retard.

Tasteful and well done mods okay, but don't be a faggot. Be nice to your parents. Have fun responsibly. Don't lord it over less fortunate ones.

It's a good car, take care of it and it'll give you good times. Also, when you want to resell it, it will hold more value.

its all about how you do it I don't care that your parents bought you a nice car I might be a little envious but if you brag about it an constantly rub it in peoples faces that might get you the wrong type of attention its all about how you present your self with it

My parents paid a third of my first car as a birthday gift, and the fee to get my license. Buying a kid a 350 or similarly expensive sports car is just stupid, everyone and I mean EVERYONE has an accident before they are 21. Doesn't even matter if its your fault or not, it will happen. Not to even mention that its a stupid car for someone with low driving experience, its low, wide, poor rear vis, and actually banned for people under 22 in my states kW/kg laws.

>mom has good job
hm.....I smell a cuck....or perhaps a well played troll?

I don't give a shit, if I had a child I'd give them a car, what the fuck, it's a basic mean of transportation. It may not be an m3 or c class but that's fucked to make them bus or walk everywhere. It's 2016, times are different. I took the bus everywhere my whole life, buying a $3000 heap of junk meant a lot to me and I know my parents tried their best but it's okay that they could never buy me a car. I'm breaking the chain, but obviously I'd set up many ground rules and they have to earn the car. It's just love

but they do stop anyone who gives a shit and wants to drive a decently fast car responsibly and legally from doing so.

Get a kid a car that will get them started in life. Let them turn it into a michette to help them make their own path. No kid needs a sports car, is it not a known fact 14-23 year olds now are entitled little shits that get scared some one wrote trump on the side walk at college? Getting them some thing that is above and beyond just practice transportation is a waste of your money and the spoiled kids ego and titlement.

Yes, the hoon laws are mostly bullshit and what we need are low cost and safe open track days.

>>14924136

>>14924140
No i did call it my house, but i think i am entitled to calling it my house since my father and i actually boult it from ground up. We bought the land with half of my money i saved. From actual working. Granted that they put the majority of the money but at 15 my entire summer and a lot of my softmore year was spent every day working on thay place, never once bitched. Started from the bottom now we hea bruh

>>14924160
Fuck character building right, lets just drown the pool even more.

lmao

>>14916355

This is a decent answer. We don't automatically hate of people who get gifts, rich people, etc.

Your parents wanna give you 15k for a car? Buy something for 5k, if it's 90's and newer it'll be plenty safe, and learn to wrench on it. Make it yours, make it better. Make it more reliable, fix it up.

This is how you get respect from
/o/
parents
anyone worth a damn.

You're gonna have people your age saying you were a fool not to but a 2009 Expedition or whatever for that 15k your parents offered. Those people are fools.

>>14912790
It's all about the attitude

Knew this kid throughout highschool that got a brand new Camaro SS and knew that he had attention from it, but never once acted like he was above anyone else for driving it

Know this other kid that was friends with one or my friends from another school that would not stop talking about "his" range rover to save his life. I kid you not, he went around everywhere telling people that the "V8 is hard to handle because it's so powerful" as if it isn't the number one grocery getter in beverly hills.

As long as you don't make yourself to be better than others because of something that you didn't earn, I don't care what you drive

>>14924234

It's not about need. This is what I'm talking about. Everything you say is about proving that you're mister big dick who can pay for stuff the way he's been told he should. Meanwhile I can pay for the same shit but don't because I'm more concerned with getting my money up than stoking my ego or "proving myself."

I can afford my own place but stay with a roomie because it costs way less and I can put that money to work. Same with cars. My parents gave me an old truck so I took it and kept putting the money I otherwise would have spent on a car to work.

Nothing about spending money where you don't have to makes you a man.

>>14924202
> not cucking auto dealers and paying less with cash

Wait i thought i was supposed to be the implied poor one here?

If your invested money earns a significantly higher rate of return than the interest rate of the loan then it makes sense to take the loan. You end up with more money in your pocket in the end, that simple.

A poor person has neither a portfolio like that nor the ability to get a loan with such a low interest rate, so yeah, it's a move only a cagey person with a solid nest egg will make.

Its not about being mister big dick its about doing what you can with what you have and constantly ugrading yourself. If you are spoon fed you probably wont overcome yourself. I can have a roomate too bro, but i dont because i can afford not too and i like my privacy. I can have every hand me down car from my parents to save me money, but i dont because that is their cars and i like to provide for myself because i simply can and im not a burden on my parents for it.
Do what you do man its working for you, but thats not the way i do things. Not because i want to stoke my own ego but because can be and do more than having my dads old cars and inconveniencing myself with a roomate.

>>14924310
Bruh cars ar not investments. If it makes sense to you then keep doing what you are doing. I pay cash because i can and i can normally shave some thousands off the top. I do het kicked out of dealers here and there but if they dont want my money there is literally like 19 other places that will.

As the other anons said, as long as you're not acting like a dick about it, it's fine, people who say shit like that, would be the biggest pieces of shit if they were rich.

>>14924433
What are you on about, dealers hate cash now because it's all about my financing.

If I show up with 10 grand the best I can get is maybe 500$ off

>>14924433
>having a new car and a place
>being and doing more
Wew lad

Cars aren't appreciating assets, but they're still paid for with money that has to come from somewhere, and if that somewhere is an appreciating asset then minimizing the damage is only smart. Investing is about managing all your money all the time, not shutting your brain off and forking over money however strikes you as manly.

BTW, you get kicked out of dealerships because you don't understand their business model at all. Nobody is giving you discounts for paying in cash. Dealers make commission from the financing arm, so they give discounts to get people into financing, not out of it. I can't even imagine how dumb those salesmen must think you are. The ones who gave you discounts were just playing nice and haggling while ignoring the BS you were spouting.

You weren't really the top of your class in school, were you?

>>14912790
the issue isnt that you own a nice car, because you do

but you did nothing to earn that car thats the real issue here

the smart thing to do would have been to sell it and use it towards tuition

you did the greedy thing
most people do

>>14924501
That's usually on the parents, not the kids. They want to give the kids something of a status symbol so they can dickwave on behalf of the parents. Why else do you think all those Chinese kids have exotics?

I bet if you suggested to most parents that they give their kid a $40k check they'd look at you like you'd struck them even though it makes good sense.

>>14924515
>giving an irresponsible teenager $40k
>makes sense
What tree did you fall out of and how many times did you hit your head on the way down before it ended up your ass?

>>14924484
Yeah i get that a lot. Most dealers turn me away or think i sell drugs or that im some sort of kid with 3000 dollars wanting his dream car.

Fuck with them and then walk away.

There is more than 1 dealer that will happily take your money.
I used pick 1 car out of every dealer and i would buy the one that gives me the best deal. Sometimes you just get lucky. I now have a dealer i normally go to, they like me because I buy in pairs.

>>14915573
Sounds like you were mad he had a nicer car than you.

>hurr you dont have a job or pay for any of it

That matters how?

>>14924527
I mean, you should know if your kid's going to do something dumb or not. I was given far more than that years ago and have yet to make any purchases larger than an old moped, never mind a new luxury car.

>mfw parents bought me a 40k car and a 10k motorcycle
>never had a job
>also had 7 previous nice motorcycles bought for me

>>14924485
Ill tell you what amigo, enjoy your jerk off season, and keep doing you, ill keep doing me because it works for me. I like to think im financially stable enough to take liberties here and there, and last time i checked it was my money to waste as i please so please get off my dick and let me waste my money. I worked hard to not rely on a paycheck so idont really have to "watch my money" as much as i used too.

>>14924583
Can't wait until you're begging for Bernie to come back in a few years, you stupid sack of shit.

Also
>calling somebody poor for having enough money to waste ;^)

>>14924620
Wasting money is poor behavior. Actual multi-millionaires have an eagle's eye on their money, all of it.

You're not butthurt, just ignorant, and not poor, just not rich either.

>>14924585
>anyone that isn't retarded supports bernie

>>14912790
depends on the person and their circumstances really

that said i know of a few people who got gifted nice shit by their parents while in high school that deserved it. (good grades, honor roll shit like that) and where actual decent human beans


and i knew of other shit heads that got nice shit despite being a fuck up both educationally and as a person.

one broski got his child hood home as a present at graduation.

dont now if he kept it though lol

>>14915480

You must be on the FB Z groups....

Please dont be like all the other plebs and wrap the Z around a pole...

but if you do, I call dibs on the brembos.

I wouldn't give you shit for it. The only thing I dont like is the people whos parents buy them and nice car and they go around and brag about it. But there's nothing wrong with accepting the nice gift of being given a nice car.

>>14926733
I could afford a car at 19 and my parents gave me one anyway. Checkmate, proles.

>>14926814
You didn't have a car until you were 19? I would have bought my kid one too so I could kick their ass out of my house. Or did they give you a car when you already had one? Fucking ridiculous either way.

>>14926901
I went to college and they put the title of the car I'd been driving in my name.

>>14926903
Fair enough, my bad. That's a pretty damn reasonable circumstance. Cos' ya know, my approval should be important to you or something, lol.

>>14919625
your brother did it so why cant you?

Yeah you didnt earn it you mom bought it for you, you dont earn the food she cooks you or the roof over your head she provides for you because she loves you but you didnt work for anything man, dont feel bad about it though anyone who could would do the same thing for their kid.

I don't know, my parents never bought me a car. Trying to keep a shitbox alive that you paid cash for isn't exactly everyone's definition of fun so maybe it's just bitterness.

>>14912790
some people want to spoil they're kids. So what? When you have kids you can raise them how you want.

>>14912790

It's just fucking retarded. I don't rightly give a shit if your parents buy your first car, it just shouldn't be a sports car. Luckily, you got a slow as shit boat, but still.

My first car was a hand me down Mazda 626. It was a beater when I got it and it took the abuse of a 16 year old well. It couldn't get me in trouble.

Buying a kid a sports car or a massive truck is how you wind up with shit like the affluenza teen in Texas. You need to learn the rules of the road and to respect others before you're given a car that can kill someone with one bad decision.

At 21, after five years of driving. I bought a Dodge Challenger R/T. I knew how to drive. I had had enough experiences with douchebags on the road to avoid being a retard in it. For four years, I've been driving this thing and never once so much as got a speeding ticket.

Your parents are actively hurting your impulse and self control by getting you something like that.

>>14927155

Also, I hate this fucking mentality. If I ever have kids, I sure a shit won't buy them a sports car. They'll be lucky to get any car from me. If I do buy them something, it'll probably be an old beater sedan worth $1000.

Why the fuck would I get a stupid, hormonal teenager a nice car? So I can run up insurance deductible costs? Fuck that.

god dammit this entire fucking thread is full of newfags and you all should commit suicide because you got b8ed

my parents paid 10k for my audi a4 2001 sedan v6 and my gas and a good bit of the parts i put on it. and my aunt died so my dad inherited her car so that is my dd and the audi is the fun car . im 18 and in college and people make fun of me because i didnt buy it but i do all the work myself on it.. my parents make like 230k jointly

>>14927450
Hahaha garbage tier Audi is your fun car?

Well I mean you didn't pay for shit but I'm definitely not jealous

i hate kids who drive a 2.5 Rs as their first car daily, bought from mommy and daddy because they wanted to go the races, to "win"

>>14922514
Too late, I got it! Muhuhuhahaha!!!

>>14924527
Shit, if I was a parent I'd want my kids to drive around in a box full of airbags practically. I'd buy them a newish volvo. I'd buy them something that keeps them safe rather than something fast probably.

>>14927411
Nah, so they don't die when they crash. That's the main reason you see parents buying new cars for their kids, safety. If you don't have kids yet, you wouldn't get it but they become the center of your world practically. Why would you give your child an unsafe car?

>>14928007

Why would you buy an unsafe used car? Nigger, if I was looking at getting g my kid a used car, right now, they'd get a 200k mileage Camry.

What the fuck is safe about a 350z? It has a top speed of 130, which any dumbsshit teenager will test. At that kind of speed, you hit a pothole and you're toast.

The Challenger has a great safety rating, but do you think I'd let my child drive it? Shit, I won't let my wife drive it. You kick out the ass end of that thing in traffic and you're toast.

>>14928067
I guess I didn't explain myself well. What I meant is that I'd buy them a 40k volvo or something, something new with good crash safety ratings and a stupid amount of airbags. I do agree with you on the sports car thing.

>>14912790
>mom has a good job

>>14912876
This is literally what my parents did. Once I graduated I accumulated the money to pay them back, per our agreement, only to have it given back to me. They just wanted to see I could do it.

I bought a 99 outback with money from an inheritance. Paid 800 for the car put the rest in savings.

Does this classify as my own car?

>>14912790
You didn't earn it but who gives a fuck.Your parents love you, just don't be a dick and rub the car in people's faces.

My parents got me a 10k car I daily, but I bought a Firebird project for $1200 of my own money. Much more proud of the shitty firebird because the title is in my name though.

>>14912790
I don't see the problem. Like others have said, don't be a dick about it. Bonus points if you're paying for your own gas and insurance.

Well, to be liked enough to get free stuff is an achievement in itself.. Especially if you frequent /o/
