But then again, I remember some kids in high school having nice cars. One kid had a Supra, and another had a Mazdaspeed Protege. among a few others.

Enjoy the car guys. I didn't have the means to drive a brand new car as a teen, so I'm jelly!
Yea, I have one of those hats to, but like you say hope they enjoy them.

First 3 cars I owned literally cost less than a lot of athletic shoes these days. First one was $300. Next two were both under $500. I had 4 cars between ages 16 and 19. I sold every one of them for the same or more than what I paid for them.

$300 cars teach you a lot about life and build character!
