All my best, O.P. It's great your Dad is willing to do this for you, and that he loves you that much. Assuming you end up with a BRZ, which you KNOW I feel is a really bad idea, PLEASE realize that you are driving around a loaded death machine and you never know who it's going to be pointed at. True of any car... the BRZ will just tempt you to pull the trigger more than most, if you get the analogy.
Happy Friday!
Love,

Again there are MUCH older guys than you here Muse.
I disagree with much of what you said about young people. It is the young guys that you feel are not developed enough to drive these "loaded death machines" that operate some of the most destructive and dangerous equipment in the world since they are the ones usually tasked with defending our freedoms. How is it even remotely possible that an 18 year old can operate a massively complex weapons system but is not ready to drive a car. I know that I am going back a ways but during Vietnam the average age of helicopter crews was 21 years old. This of course means that many were well under 20.
I know older and more "mature" guys that can't drive their Buicks worth crap and 18 year olds that can out drive me so like anything else there are good and bad in any group. To lump them all together is just not realistic nor fair. Anybody driving any car can become a death machine it is not restricted to the young.
And please no "kids these days" responses since our parents said the same thing about us and theirs about them and so on to the beginning of human kind.
