I am one of those teens (19) you are trying to weed out. But one thing different than what you are saying is that I am paying for the vette. I am working with an architecture firm and making a good amount of money. It is actually really disrespectful to me when someone assumes that my parents are paying for my vette and it happens countless times. These kind of things make me mad, sorry to be a debbie downer but not all teens are irresponsible spoiled brats. I am spoiled but I still take ownership and pay for the things I have and am very greatful for them, I thank my parents everyday. So just a heads up, dont always just assume that when you see a younger person in a nice car or have something nice that it was just given to them

There are lots of inexpensive Corvettes out there including C5's. Corvettes are not the status symbol they once were unless you own a relatively new one.

I can afford a lot more car, I just happen to really like my Corvette.
