Default Where Do You Work/do To Pay For Your Ride????????????????

Ive always seen teenagers driving off in their pimped out cars and i just cant help to wander where they get the money. I mean do you guys just spend all your money on cars or do your parents help you out or do you have high paying jobs or what your know. I just wanted to know if im missing on something or whatever you know so i just wanted to know how old you guys are and what you do for work and what not to trick out your rides and everything because that shit costs alot.
Thanks

i was in a reck and the other insurance company gave me 3000...so i took it and didn't sue (not like i was going to b/c it was my best friends family). and then i used that to pay my half of the car when i was almost 17. and i've been working on a golf course and at a car dealership to make the money..i've paid for everything aftermarket. and im 18 now and dont street race like other stoopid teenagers. not all of us are stupid like most ppl think. i keep it at the track. dont know why i went off topic there but oh well. i dont quid

Freelancing. My parents gave me $4k to buy a car at the beginning of the summer. Not really enough to buy anything decent. I bought my teg with money I had saved up for the past couple years and insurance money from when I had my truck totaled. I also dont spend my money on fancy sterio systems, big screen TVs, and lots of other expensive crap. I buy only what is needed. Because of this I usualy have a surplus of money. So every once and a while I buy something nice for my car.

both cars I've owned I paid for myself. actually, my second car i got a "no interest" loan from my mother, and I'm paying it off right now.

I've seen kids my age (18) and younger driving TSX's, WRX's, new Jetta 1.8t's....the list goes on and on.
