i was 16 when i got my g35 and i haven't been pulled over or crashed ... if your the person is responsible and a good driver then they can handle the power

I know this is an old thread but the G35 is a joke. There's a severe lack of torque and as long as you're not trying to be a hero from the get-go there's no way a 16 year old would have trouble driving it.
When I was 16 years old I had just gotten a 1997 Camaro Z28 with an M6. That car was 100x more fun to drive than my 2006 Coupe 6MT.
What it all comes down to is how smart/stupid the driver is.

I dont think the g35 has a severe lack of torque.. it has more than enough for anyone to be reckless, but driving any car in general comes with responsibility.

That is what ruins it for us Teen drivers.

I was going to get my dads old 04 X, but it was to much for the lease buyout, so i found another G. I have a car payment $234 a month, parents pay for insurance and yea.
Theres 2 reasons i have this car.
1. My mom works for insurance and shes not a freaking idiot. She says shed rather ahve me in a powerful 4 door thats really freaking safe (this car is really safe BTW) than some POS Civic thats small and would get crumpled up.
2. my dad just DOES NOT want a POS car in his driveway leaking oil, always needing costly repairs, ect. He has issues with my sisters mint 96 Subie Outback. Says its trashy.
3. My dad likes the Gs and says they are great, reliable, practical cars. And this one will get me through college and it still has warranty!
4. Im atleast making an effort to pay for some of this car. I work for my parents, i dont do drugs (honestly wes, i dont know how your mom lets you keep your car, but thats up to you and her...)
5. Civics get stolen to much for my mom. She hates them and Hondas in general lol
6. I may drive fast, but i dont do stupid **** and i dont do it ALL the time.

Too much Power? There is no such thing as too much power when it comes to any car no matter how old you are. Too much STUPIDY just like a 16yr old on another thread that did Doughnuts on an intersection and got Boned..now that's what's TOO MUCH.
