I had the opposite problem, but it wasn’t a bad problem. My dad refused to be consider cars that “weren’t muscley enough”
I waited until I was 30 to step in the realm of genuinely fast cars. Easiest way to learn car dynamics and control: low powered cars like Miatas, Celicas, stock DSM AWDs, etc. It wasn’t a big jump for me to go to a 1993 3000GT VR4 then last year because I knew how to handle a car quite well. Side bonus was that this one already had some work done to it. I love it, the girlfriend hates it, everyone else tells me to grow up. WIN
My first vehicle was a 6.2L v8. Only thing was it was a diesel pickup and was slower than a turtle.
Vtec kicked in yo!
“I bought a Nissan mum! ” “That’s my boy!Such a mature choice!”
Convince parents to allow buying wagon version of a regularly fast car. Most parents will fall for its practicality. Worked for me at least. -Audi Twin Turbo wagon
“Sure thing, get a sports car. You have to lend it to us when we go out on dates though.”
on that whole insurance thing, i switched from an 08 wrx to an 01 audi tt convertible. please explain why my 2 door convertible sports car is half the price of my AWD 4 door sedan… FYI both are turbo.
Or you could just make your own money and buy your own car so your parents can’t stop you! Im 16 with a 340 whp and my parents can’t do a thing about it lol.
