umm... i was once a 16yo driver. i took lots of driver's ed and drove with my parents ALOT. i wasnt the best driver, but i was, and am still better than 90% of the drivers out there. just b/c he's 16 does not mean he cant drive a civic.

i was lucky enough to drive an accord since i had my permit. the week after i got my lic, i lowered it. a month later i had a AEM cai and greddy header, etc,etc.

my older brother got the car new when he was 16, i got it when i was 16, then my lil bro got it when he was 16. he learned how to drive on a lowered car with a kit.

in the neighborhood i grew up in, kids had all sorts of crazy cars... everything from a tt supra to a e39 m5. some kids always crashed they fancy cars, other didnt. you really cant judge
