Convincing mom

Hey im back. im 16 and want the camaro real bad. Im a responsible kid and am 2nd in class rank. I study hard and i dont know what else to do to convince my mom to let me get the car. My dad loves the idea yet my mom shivers at it. She says when you in it it feels as if your in a bubble. Also the visibilty to her is quite poor. Any possibly convincing agruments?

If your parents dont want to just buy you a 41,000 dollar V8 muscle car with 426 horsepower. AT 16 YEARS OLD.

I dont think you can do much convincing.

Did you leave off that they want you to get a 335i? All good cars just keep working on them if you want it. Lots of young people have high HP cars. Just be safe

Ask your mom to drive it instead of riding in it. The drivers seat rides an inch and a half higher so she won't feel that way and meybe she will feel like it is a good option for you. The Camaro has a lot of great safety features I'm sure the dealer will like to share with her. Request that spycam for insurance purposes so you can continue to show your parents your responsible nature when driving such a powerful car. Take note of my signature line.
See if that helps.

My dad doesnt want me to get the bmw 335 I. Ok so here it is my grandparents are paying 20000 for a car. My bro got this http://www.youtube.com/user/nsf275#p/u/7/TklyVgKvb0w

Now he got his brand new. My grandpa is super nitpicky about getting a used car so if i were to get a bmw 335i it would have to be like a 2006 or 07 with like less than 20000 miles which would be near impossible to find. Now i like the beemer and all its just more a luxury car.

do you think the kid who wants a Camaro "real bad" wants an LS? or an SS? without the RS package? i think not... and why not make it a 2SS, 'cause the leather is much nicer.
