nice car, congrats. Whats up with the trunk? Looks like it was damaged and repaired as the emblems are not placed correctly and it's not lined up.

I actually think thats a great car to start with. Its got some power so it wont be boring, its incredibly safe, has some clout to it but not too much, looks great and other than little things, should be pretty reliable. Great gift!!!!!

I think if I have kids they won't be getting an AMG at 16. Maybe a used E320 or really old S class. Safe but no power!
