2005 C Wagon (No snickering please!)
At an early age the boy is showing good taste in motor cars, isn't he?
My son is 21, and considering he drives Porsche cup cars at speed on the track, I trust him to take out the C wagon to **** some parts.

Well done for your son to achieve this! Luca has got this far to date. He is only 1 year old. No harm in starting them young.
I awlays said to my wife he will be driving before he is walking. He has to sit on the floor of his car to reach the pedals.

Well my kids wont be driving an E55 (or equivalent) because -
a. Its, now, illegal for learners and provisional licence drivers to drive supercharged/turbo chagred/"high powered" cars in most Australian states.
b. It would void my insurance - nobody under 27yo unless emergency/'service' etc. Otherwise it would cost a fortune to insure
c. Its a bad idea. They need to start on something smaller and easier and slower!

No sir!!! I wouldn't let my kid drive it. After that M5 story I really wouldn't. Bottom line is that they make these cars for certain people (if u know what I mean) and I would have to sit down and explain it into detail with the youngin! 
now with me in the car with them....different story.

When it is finally time for me to have children, they will go to high performance driving / racing school so that they can learn how to properly handle a car. Plus a German driver's license, since it is a lifetime license, and requires a lot of training.
After having those credentials, they can drive whatever they want.
