One thing is for sure, whether they bought their own car or not, they are real car fans - or else they wouldn't be on these forums.

When I was a teenager, I had some friends who had really nice cars given to them, but most bought their own after working for them. Some people get a bit envious when they see someone quite young driving a car that most middle-aged people can only dream about owning, but envy is such a self-destructive thing - and one thing I have learned in life is - things are seldom as they seem - nobody's life is perfect - we should all be grateful for what we have and strive for what we want - not get bitter and jealous of those who we feel have got a "better deal" in life - life is just too short for that.
