So my dad bought me a car, a Toyota Corolla S. It runs really smooth and is very nice, too bad I'm not old enough to drive until July . What do you guys think? Here's what it looks like.

Nature is a powerful force. Those who seek to subdue nature, never do so permanently.
Corollas will run for a long, long time. Toyota is a reliable brand.
I hope you don't like racing though. Because you won't be going fast at all.
TBH, it's a great choice for a starting driver. GL behind the wheel man.

Yes, I wish. I could so do a drive-by and pop a cap in somebodies ass with that. . I want to take a picture of my car, but my sister brought her $400 camera with her on two week vacation to Germany with my mom.Im_Dooomed wrote:

Why instead of telling:sister brought her $400 camera with her...
You didn't just tell us : sister brought her camera with her...
I'm 17 and still I don't even have a permit and congratulations on getting a car
Money isn't important to me, but this is the first big thing I've ever gotten. It's awesome.0seb--morin0 wrote:

That's exactly what I thought, it doesn't come across very well. (nobody likes a show-off/boast - money doesn't make you better).0seb--morin0 wrote:

You can drive at 16 in aussie and for 20k that cars shit you never buy brand new jap cars.
Wow, 15 and you're allowed to drive in the states, and you gotta be 21 to legally drink alcohol!!! I had to wait until I was 17 before I started driving.
Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.
Sat in one of those. Plus, some rich guy near me owns one. Happy days.M.O.A.B wrote:

Here in Denmark all i can afford is a '94 Vectra A....
take the price of the car and add 180% taxes then you have the price in DK.....

^ This costs: 20.000 DKk.. you do the math...
And in DK we can't get our licence 'till we are 18
BTW: I might be buying this today

Your thoughts, insights, and musings on this matter intrigue me
Yeah, and In Onrtario you have to be 16 to drive. But 15? Wtf... Thats just crazyLT.Victim wrote:

You only have to be 15 in the US to drive? Fuck, you have to be 17 here in the UK.
No way would i trust 15 year olds driving round here.
We have pretty strick driving rules where I live, You can't drive by yourself until you 17, and even then, you can only have 1 passenger (unless family member) until your 19... and did I mention we have to put this gay sign on our car saying we are a new driver too..
My exact car, excuse the non-aesthetically pleasing backdrop + not great picture (it's the only one I have and it was taken on my phone).

Well, it's my mum's but I get pretty much unrestricted access
+ When I pass (no 'if's about it!) she might let me have it! Woooo!

I've been for a quick spin in one at a race track. I wouldn't mind owning a Toyota Hilux for my first car, durable as hell and they'll get you places. Not sure about the insurance though.fatherted13 wrote:
