I see why you resort to ad hominem attacks. You need to learn how to present arguments without logical fallacies.
To illustrate your logical fallacy, we can use this example:
Since my father smoked 2 packs a day for 50 years and didn't get lung cancer, who are you to say that smoking is irresponsible even though many people have died from lung cancer caused by smoking? And to claim smoking is irresponsible must mean that you hate smokers or are jealous of them for having the extra money to buy cigarettes.
Whether someone wants to smoke or not, or should be allowed to smoke, are entirely different issues from whether or not smoking is irresponsible.
As you can see, your logic doesn't hold up to scrutiny and fails to address the argument of irresponsibility. Whether or not parents want to buy their kid a high powered "status" car, or whether or not they should be allowed to do so, are entirely different issues from the question of whether or not it is irresponsible to do so.
Again, you are embarrassing yourself with your lack of rhetorical skills.

Save your thesaurus based arguments for someone that might buy it. Fact of the matter it that you have no idea the experience or maturity level that this kid has and truthfully it's none of your business. He came on to an online community united through the car that he owns and asked a simple question. Instead of getting a rational answer he gets slammed by you idiots and his mom is called irresponsible because middle aged men are jealous of him and his vehicle. Grow up.

Hell no, I drove it like I drive my Camaro. When I'm in traffic and residential areas I drive it like any other car. Just because a car has high HP it doesn't have to be driven at that limit all the time. When the time was right I let it loose. I have driven some sort of motorized vehicle since I was 4 years old. I think even at 17 I could handle a vehicle better than the people that post of pics of their car wrapped around a tree.

You should have been put in a foster home. How many families and kittens did you kill?
