  1. That car is too mature for a 17 year old. You should get a used Honda like all the other teenagers. It'll last you through college.


  2. Go get a bmx and dont crash it.

  3. How do you afford a Lexus at 17?  And what was the purpose of you telling your age.. other than to brag?

  4. Frankly, if I were you I'd look into buying a safer and less powerful car. A Ford or a VW is just as good as a Lexus, and VWs will get you plenty of cool points because they're awesome cars. :-)

    Another thing you should consider is that because you just crashed your car and you're only 17, your insurance rates are going to go through the roof. Maybe your parent(s) pay for your insurance so you don't need to worry about that, but I imagine it would say a lot to your parent(s) about your level of responsibility if you were to decide to purchase a safer and less overpowered car that will help keep your insurance rates a bit lower and help you stay safe on the roads until you get some more driving experience under your belt.

    And if you're on your own, you're the one who's got to take care of yourself and look for the long-term risks and benefits.

    I'm not saying any of this to shake my finger at you or make you feel bad; I'm just trying to offer some sound advice from my experience. Hope this helps without stinging too much. :-)

  5. Get an Acura TL. I have (soon to be had) a 2004 TL which had just saves my life. On Friday here in Maryland, there was severe rain. I was on my way home from work around 7:00 PM. I was at a four-way stop waiting for the light to change. As is changed, without hesitation, I went through. After driving around 7 Feet, I saw the headlights coming right at me, them BAM!

    From another drivers perspective, an 18 Year Old Boy driving a Ford Expedition with a large chrome grill guard hydroplaned through the light around 25MPH, hitting the front-drivers side of my Acura. As soon as he hit, my curtain airbags deployed. Since my door was permanently shut, I crawled out of the passenger side. Since it was late and dark, I couldn't see much of my car except the shattered glass on the road and my front wheel which was now in two pieces. After the crash, I was so shaken up, I didn't even spell my name right!

    I can honestly say, that if I was in a car like a Kia or something, I would be dead right now. Since I think my car is totaled, I am most likely going to buy another TL. It is great car.

    Good Luck & Drive Safe

    Here is a Picture of a TL:
