Get started early by working hard, may it be going to school or working, at the end of it, it all pays off and you can get whatever you want/can afford at that point. It may not be an M3 but at least you bought it with your own hard work.
Dont be that guy borrowing a mil or 3 from your parents when your 30.

this thread is about people's thoughts on the m3, not whether or not OP deserves the car. but like most of these threads, it just ends up turning into a shit storm of people passing judgment on someone they don't know. i've noticed from other threads that you're very adamant on the whole "you aren't shit if you take handouts from your parents" thing, which is completely fine because that's your opinion.
But what makes you think that the OP doesn't "work hard"? Granted, there are tons of kids who just take handouts from their parents and do shit all, but I don't think you can make that kind of assumption simply because his parents are buying him a car.
i know tons of people who are in their late teens/early 20's who still live off their parents and drive nice cars. some are going to law school, some are almost finishing up med school, all while their parents pay for their housing, bills and everything else in between. but once they're graduated, they'll have careers that will eventually make them more money than their parents ever did. IMO the point of parenting is to do the best you can so your kids can use your resources and be even more successful in the end. hence the term, "the rich get richer".
