I pay for my car, my mods, my insurance, my gas 100%.
mommy and daddy dont help.

To my kids, i'm old.
To my wife, i'm not mature enough.
To my parents, i'm still a kid.
To some friends, i purportedly need to grow up.
To my co-workers, i'm the equivalent of a handful of other skilled workers.
Personally, i've been twenteen for quite some time now.

37 glad I'm not the only one over 30 here!

23 and paying it off. Insurance is 800/6 months..can't wait till I turn 25 and it goes down.

im 19 and I got my car when I was 17. Paid for it in cash with my own money and I pay all expenses. My parents told me that they would pay insurance and they did for the first year. Now I pay in full

lol really you all pictured me as older???

how old? lol

Wow we got some young stunners.

Got mine when I was 19, 21 now. Should have it paid off by feb next year.


I put down 17k on it. My insurance is cheap because I'm under my parents plan.

I'm a man, I'm 40.

I'm 19 now lol. Got the car as a graduation gift. A bit of people hate on it, but i don't really care

I'm 36, got my car when I was 35. And no, I don't consider myself old. Just a bit slower

I'm 21 got it when i was 20!! i love my mom lol....im incredibly lucky that my mom is paying for it now! we have a deal when i get a better job i will be paying half of the payment and insurance!

40 year old, here. Given the typical G driver that I see on the road, this board is not representative of the average age. That kind of adds to the sleeper quality of the G.

22 but leaving family here soon

Talk about lucky..95% of parents that i know of my friends would never get a car like this for their kid..but you are from cali so i bet it's a bit different out there than here on east coast.

Hell if i was 20 and my parents were willing to get me a car like this i would take it...but after getting a tad bit older..i just couldn't do it..but to each their own!

I'm 33.

The real question is, what is the average age/gender of the second-gen G driver who also posts on a forum. I'm guessing that when you take the 2 into consideration together, you're not getting an accurate representation of the actual age of drivers.

Also, a lot of people just buy a car and never mod, never really learn about it online, etc.

Anyway, what are you kids doing to pay for a $30K car at age 21? Slinging crack?

I want to see this as well..for those of you around 20-22..do your parents pay anything towards your car..including gas, insurance ect
