I do not like the idea he's wanting a high-performance sports car. Accident waiting to happen. A whole lot of these kids that can afford those things have more money than driving talent, and get themselves or someone else hurt.

I tend to agree, but then again if I were 20 something and suddenly rich I probably wouldn't be out shopping for some grandpamobile.. A Rolls-Royce isn't exactly known as some hotrod to go screaming through town like a drunken nitwit in either..  They tend to hold value longer than say a 82 Ford Escort with a 3 speed manual transmission ..
I might question that big ass dinner plate watch which screams ROB ME at gun point..
Tattoos? Ehh. It's art that never holds value..the tat I got at 16 makes me wonder if I'm going blind or if it turned blurry on it's own. I remember the desire to get all tatted up years ago, but soon got over that foolishness..

And I can convince anyone who knows anything about cars that a driver is much safer in a Porsche going 90 MPH than in a Corolla.

So where exactly were you in law enforcement?  I'd like to know where this place is where kids don't kill themselves by driving cheap cars too fast.  

When I was growing up Cameros and Mustangs only had about 200 HP, and guess what, kids were dying in them all the time.

Lexington, Ky., where we had inner city streets and I-75 and I-64.  And I did not say kids don't die in cheap underpowered cars. My point was it's much easier for a high horsepower vehicle to get away from a driver than it is some sedan. If you can't understand that, they sell Prevagen at the drugstore. Buy some.

The Rolls doesn't bother me, I eluded to his statement that he wants to get a 2 wheel drive sportscar next. That makes me a little nervous, just like Burrow in his Porsche. But like always, Fred has to argue. I've been through some of the best "Pursuit Driving" schools in the nation, and my buddy's Hellcat still scares the hell out of me sometimes. I can only imagine a kid with no training and just a couple years driving experience behind the wheel. It's almost as scary as Fred's Corolla.

They fade and get blurry. You need a touch up.
