At 17, my car is one of the most important things in my life and I gotta tell you, driving a car that most grown men dream about is a hell of a feeling. A bad day is one smokey burnout away from being turned around into a great day. I drive my 1970 442 everyday despite the terrible gas mileage. However, I was never handed keys. I had to work my butt off to get where I'm at. At the same time your statement, although extreme, does hold some truth. I beat the hell out of my first car a 1965 Chevy Impala SS. Granted I picked it up for only four grand, it was just a small block 327 and I still found ways to get into trouble with it. Now, my 455 packs a whole lot of power, but with that comes a whole lot of respect and responsibility too. You're absolutely right, a muscle car for at my age isn't necessary, but it's awesome!

I agree totally. Being 17 myself you couldnt be farther from the truth. Lol my first car was a 78 lincoln continental. It had a 460, and i would drive it all week at 10 bucks a day, and fix it all weekend lol. once i get my cutlass done, it will definently turn heads, which im very excited for, because where i live i have the only 69 cutlass that i know of. there is a 71 4-door here, a 72 4-door in the junk yard, and there is like a 67 2 door rolling around town i think. so everyone will know who it belongs to. the only punishment it will ever go through is at the dragstrip.
