If insurance is as bad as I've heard, I'm sure a lot of those high school kids wouldn't be able to afford one anymore, dropping sales drastically. The ones that could still afford one would probably be spoiled rich kids that treat their car with little respect and have little respect for anyone else on the road. Let's face it, teenagers are maniacs behind the wheel of a semi-powerful or more car, not to mention everyone else since they'd be so easy to come by, and insurance claims would go up, raising the price for everyone, allowing even less young people (the majority target from what I've seen) to get one. But that's just my opinion.
thanks... just like every honda driver is a ricer correct?? i live in a town full of poeple over 65 and everybody is scared to do over 25 and imo they're even MORE dangerous then the highschoolers the "powerful" cars at my school are the ones kept the NICEST and drive the best i can't tell you how many times i've been cut off and i'm only 17 and no it's not because i was speeding i hardly ever speed and the one time i want to get home after riding at the track i get a ticket for 10 over (there was absolutly nobody out there) and that's the only "trouble" i've ever been in and actually people give me shit for how well i keep my car it's the kids that get the "police interceptor" crown vics that think their hot shot's or the guys with the ridicuously loud trucks so just remember next time you see a kid with a nice car don't think he's a douche bag i catch so much shit from people for it oh and the insurance is pretty ridiculous
