Until I can drive on (read: terrorize) my local roads. Woo hoo! This is gonna be a long couple of years, but I’m already counting the days. I say so because it’s my birthday today! If you desire, you may bless me with photos of F40s, vans, cars with Martini livery, or anything you like.

1. Move to Iowa

2. Get permit last year

I had a sister in Iowa. I went out when I was 15-3/4yo, and here’s these short shit 14yo babies* talking about learning to drive

*no, actually they were fine. Just frustrated me of being nearly 2 years older and still not on the road

Oh yes! Love me some Martini Porsches. And that F40 engine bay.

Permit, but I'll take what I can get.

I was that way too, it sucks. Some people just don’t get/want licenses

I don’t understand that. I have a friend who just turned 16, but instead of asking for a car or a permit for his birthday, he asked for a golf cart. Major facepalm.

My parents have already agreed to take me to the DMV on my 16th birthday to get my permit.

It will be worth the wait bud! :) It will be also worth the wait once you get your first car...I can still clearly remember the moment I was sitting in the driver’s seat of ‘Beastie’, my old 2002 Subaru Impreza 2.5TS and it finally “clicked” that this is MY car...my responsibility, my escape, my freedom, my fun . Enjoy the ride...figuratively and literally! ;) :P

Doesn’t matter what you end up with...beater Corolla, abused Minivan, just enjoy having your own wheels when the time comes!

I still miss my first car immensely...had her for 5 years and 70,000kms! :)

Long live the Blob Eye! That car looks awesome, especially in green as a wagon. 99% chance my first car will be my mom’s ‘09 Odyessey, but I still like it and can't wait to drive it!
