As a huge Delorean enthusiast I must say that while it is very possible for a 17 year old to own a D, it is very important to remember this car is costly! Myself being 22, I still cannot afford one and I won't for at least another 8 - 12 months. Besides the cost factor, the car also needs so much attention, and I am unsure if a normal 17 year old can do that all time as every other delorean owner does. Also.....does every 17 year old drive well enough to drive a delorean? I drive great, but only from tons of experience, but I wouldn't trust another 17 year old to drive my car. Just my 2 cents. -Aaron Crocco NY Plate: OUTATYM [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
