I doubt parents would be buying their 20+ year old children cars, at least not mine. For a first car as a teen, yeah, but not someone who's...25 or something.

Well parents don't buy 20+ year olds cars but they do pay for college and other expenses. So not having to pay for college from you work may just go to paying for your e55 .

Well... I've seen more than a few young people here in SoCal driving outragious cars that they do indeed pay for themselves.

They also live with their parents, explain to their GF's that they don't believe in Christmas and Birthday presents, and pretty much live hand-to-mouth. In your 20's, it's all about what you drive out here.
