I got a 6 month internship at a major tech company in 07, and managed to save up a good amount of money. Shortly after, I totalled my Scion tC. I went about a year and a half without a car (not fun times), then used the money the insurance company paid out for the car along with what I had saved up and bought an IS250. The tC was from my parents, who helped me buy it for my 18th birthday, in return that I go to college.
So technically, my parents did pay for a good chunk of my IS. I actually took a loan from them to afford the car (so I didn't have to finance), seeing I was shopping for an IS300 @ $15k, and I only had $20k saved up. My IS was 19k, almost 22k OTD, so I had to borrow 2 grand. I cut all my expenses for the next couple months to pay them back, as I hate owing people money.

Interesting thread. Im in the UK and im 36 which is young for the Lexus driver here. The majority of owners in the UK are 45+
I suppose we can't buy a lot of parts for modding the IS over here and to get anything you have to ship from the US. :-(

carrying cash like that lead to carrying loaded guns = NO good
