He had a 911TT for about 2 weeks which I LOVED...now he has a Bentley GTC and 750Li...I always drive his cars though so I have a lot of experience with them.

At 18 I just don't feel like jeopardizing my finances for a 100k+ car...yet

I still miss the fun of the rwd SL55 though.

Its funny though how going from a stock SL55 to a modded CLK500 sounds like I became a failure haha.

My next car is either going to be the new GTR, modded Vette, used modded CL65, new M3, C63, or 996 911TT. One more year till the lease is up
Naaa I didn't mean it that way, hardly a failure driving a 209 CLK500 w/nos @ age 18? thought maybe you fell prey to unforeseen medical issues? or an evil X wife lol... Pretty kool getting a hold of those cars at your age enjoy and be safe...

AMGrateful and BigApe:

AMG - you are completely off your rocker (this is a good thing) and I like your style! I would have liked to see you carry the drift/powerslide a bit more...

Ape - you having a bad day or something? I have seen some absolutely silly stuff on video (like the SLR/E55 race somwhere in CA on a city street @ speeds of 120+ - THAT WAS STUPIDITY AT ITS HIGHEST LEVEL - people could have easilly gotten killed) that makes this video look like a wheelchair ride across the street...

I think it looked like good clean fun.

Agreed, it wasn't dangerous at all so I don't think this guy should be criticized for having some safe fun.
