Sorry if I offended you, Mr. Falwell.

My friend isn't seriously threatened by his girlfriend's Corvette.. no big deal.

i'm not going to debate that. but where do you draw the line? when do you say "that car is too powerful"? it's easy to look at the extremes, but what about the non-so extremes? and btw, people of all ages do stupid sh!t, how many per age group do we need before a sports car is not acceptable for them?
You're right....there isnt a point where you can cross the line. Should all V6's be outlawed ofr 16 year olds? There's no way something like taht could work.

The problem isn't really the car, it's the driver. I think that driver's education should be much more strict, perhaps be not done by school. I learned nothing from it, even with the 8 hours driving experience (more like 4). Graduated liscences are good, you can't get full privilges until about 17. There should be harsher penalties for younger drivers.
Now I'm way off topic😀

Don't you hate it when you quote someone and then they edit it out while you type it up? I do😛

The fact that he is complaining about it.
no, that's not it.... people are saying things like "he doesn't need it" or crap like that. if we all drove cars on what we needed, most of us would be driving civics or something. people drive nice cars because they're nice, not because they need a car that nice.
And an expedition isnt really that expensive of a car either...

But on the Corvette, I disagree. A 16 year old (Generalization) shouldnt drive a Corvette....theyre going to fsck around with it, show off, etc. There's not much reason for having a Corvette except for power and bragging rights...

how is that different from just about *any* corvette owner? what you said has nothing to do with age.

You're missing the point. I know I am generalizing this, but 16 year olds don't have the experience and tend to be more stupid than a 45 year old Corvette owner. Why do you think your car insurance gets lowered once you get past the age of 25? Doesn't matter how you argue it, I rather be sitting in a Corvette driven by a 45 year old than a 16 year old fresh out of driving school.
 
Yes ANY SUV. I have ethics.

He is a junior in HS and I talk to him on AIM. He says his manhood is insulted. His girlfriend drives a Corvette and he drives an Expedition. I told him the only solution is to sell the Expedition and buy an old musclecar or a Z. Anyone have any other solutions for this poor guy?

Option 1: Tell him to get an old Jeep with a 258 straight 6, lift it a couple of inches, and put on some swampers. I've got a friend who did that, and lets just say there isnt much arguement about whether its a guy vehicle or a chick vehicle.

Option 2: Tell him to quit crying like a drunk who just fell down and broke his last bottle of liquor, and that he should attempt something called Operation Grow-Sack, which is growing a pair of testicles, rather than needing a powerful car to help him feel like a man.

A guy's manhood isnt insulted if his g/f has a beefier car than him. Say it with me now: It's not an insult, its a perk!

Actually the solution for SPS is usually an SUV, not a puny, girly car... why do you think there are so many? I'm losing respect for you. Soon there will be none left.

If he put performance stickers on his SUV, would that have the same effect?

No it doesn't snow in Austin or Houston, hence the RWD car 🙂.

[Dubbed English in a Chinese Movie] You act as if your respect is something that is to be valued [/Dubbed English in a Chinese Movie]

FWI, I don't own a SUV. If I had a choice between a SUV and a Ricer like yours I would take the SUV though.

Yes a small girly car like my 240sx. That is how those SUV guys see it.. maybe you didn't understand the sarcasm? How do you define a "ricer"?
