The question is should a 16 Year old be allowed to drive one or own it. Well my take is heck yeah. If you have the means to buy your 16 year old a 370z then do it.
What would be the difference in buying them a ford focus or something else, the dumbest, fastest drivers on the road are the ones in the little ***t boxes we all see running around.
I am 42 and grew up with GTO's, Chevelles, Corvettes and I always got told to much power, etc... buy the 16 year old the car and get them some advanced driving lessons. Teach a young adult some responsibility, give it to them and see what happens, I have yet to read of an accident in my area with thousands of drivers daily with some young adult in a sports car, nope always the econo box loaded with friends and no appreciation for anything or anyone.
I plan on giving this car I just bought to my Daughter when she turns 16, she is 12 now, by then she will have grown up driving tractors, ATV's, heck she even drives my Yukon around the property now. She will have complete trust in me that I trust her judgement..

Last point, with the safety features in this car and only two seats they aren't going to be carting to many friends around. You give a 16 Year old a car like this and they will worship it, like we old guys would had our dads given us a Mustang or a Camaro back in the day..

Let the debate begin or not.

Thanks,
