To young?!
I just turned 20 in May and also graduated college with an Associates degree in May. Well, after starting full time at my work (Michelin Tire of all places
) I fell in love with a 2002 Z06. Well, the next day I drove 500 miles and bought it! Since then, I've had numerous people telling me I was to young and inexperienced to drive a Vette!? Whats with that!!! 
Just wondering everyone elses thoughts on a 20 year old owning a 2002 Z06...

Definately not to young, I am 19 for another 2 months and Ive had my vette for about 7 months and I know of some people that have vettes that are younger than me. They are just bitter and jealous that you have a vette and want to ruin your glory. Never let anyone bring you down about having a vette, if anyone makes a comment just remember, your still driving a vette.
Congrats on the buy, your going to love it, but unless you have a fireproof wallet there will be a hole in it soon, the bug will take hold

I got my 1st vette @ 21. I got my 2nd vette @ 23, which is my current car also a 2002 Z06. Like said before, as long as you've got 1/2 a brain and don't get into too much trouble, there's nothing wrong with being young and having a bad @ss car.
Gee..thanks!
