Bah... try driving north americas busiest highway (401 expressway in Ontario) and you quickly become an expert! After driving stick for more than 10+ years, its like breathing. You dont think about it, it just happens!

Oh, 31 here... LOL

I was 15 (12 days from 16) when I got my 01 CL-S. Which is about the time I started browsing this great forum. Very fortunate to have such great parents. I get straight A's, dont' drink or do drugs, I help around the house and never give them hell. So I guess that helped out with their generosity.

17 now and will be 18 in about 6 months; no tickets, accidents or boo-boos on the car.

Should've kept the 540i, that thing is an under-rated ROCKET, then again the Z28 hauls. Funny, you have the same selection as me. I had a '94 Integra, was looking at a Z28, went with a Cobra, was looking at a 540i/STi, went with a newer, under warranty Mercedes, now I'm on to the CL-S.

Anyway, I'm almost 20 and I drive the A/T because I just tired of stick shift for the past 4 years, needed a one or two car break on the manual.

540i was pretty fast it was a 6speed as well and I had a DINAN intake on it. At the time my ex g/f went to school out of state and i drove 900 miles round trip to see her every month. Maintenace on the 540 was a bear everything was expensive and I just didnt want to keep paying for it. Good car but I love my CL more than i ever did the bimmer

I agree, I enjoy my CL-S more than any of my past cars. Here are a few pics of my last rides. The fact is, the CL-S has more options, more comfort for the power, and less reliability issues than any other car I've owned.



Here, the Benz and the Mustang, prior to selling the stang. You can also see my dad's '04 TL in the background



Anyway, that's all I have documented. The '94 Integra wasn't around long enough, same with the Cobra (someone smashed into it while I was in a parking lot)

Could just be me having a retard moment since its late but is that a base/V6 front bumper on your Cobra? I thought they cobra had a more aggressive front end. I do really like the rims on the benz! I was looking at an 03 C240 sport just like that a few years ago. Looks good!

The question should be who is the youngest person who actually bought and paid for their car by themselves...and not their parents.

I said I didn't have any pictures of the Cobra because it got hit before I could. Anyway, that was my car before the Cobra and yes, it was a V6. I did have a lot of mods done and it could pull with E36 M3s, so it wasn't terrible, just not too reliable.


Anyway, as for my cars, I've bought all of them with my own money.
