Answer 2

the thing is that ur a minor under 18 soo u COULD buy a car if they sell it to u just u but they dont have to unless they are idiots and do so cuz then u could sell the car bak to them anytime even after crashed and totaled cuz ur a minor and can break the contract whenever...so they are most likely gonna have to have u bring a person ove 18with u like ur brother would be fine anyone over 18 i  think.

You can buy a car at any age but, if you're 16, your parents will have to consent to you driving it.  They are the ones responsible for you until you are 18.  They could make you get rid of it.  Hopefully you'll talk to them about it and let them know you'll be the one to pay for gas and insurance.  By the way, the insurance premium for a 16 year old boy will be extremely high.
