I am pretty sure every culture values independence. Some people just get better seed money than others.

Indifference exist because we are only human. No point getting so caught up in what other thinks. Keep your head high, drive safe, and don't be a douchebag on the road, its not about what you drive, its your attitude.

Great if your mom got you your m3, just don't look down on my civic (which was what I could afford at the time  ). For me, it all comes down to arrogance and towards those people who act like they are somehow better than you because of the advantaged circumstances.

to fight for freedom, you have to fight to stand on ur own 2 feet. | well you were luckier than me. if my parents had their way, i'd still be taking transit. instead my first car was a POS tercel. it wasn't anything to be proud of, but it was a car... unfortunately an unreliable one so i ended up taking the bus anyway

I'm all about mentality when it comes to this topic. Good points above.
I give no respect for peeps that get a nice car and complain about having no money for mods. That is a true classic and I love hearing these guys...hahaha

why does this topic keep popping up every few months
To what degree do these more well-off kids "deserve" it?
I generally dont have a problem, the hate on these boards obviously stem from jealousy

I could give two fucks if someone drives a car that was purchased by their parents because a. it's irrelevant to my life and b. who really gives a fuck. I mean seriously there are too many other things going on in most people’s lives to worry about if some kid is driving a car owned by their parents.

if the parents want to buy their kid a nice car, then they DESERVE it.
like how if you WANT something then it becomes a NEED.
Wats wrong with looking down on a CAR (not owner) when it actually is worse than another car.

That was why I asked you the question, I replied, because I see that you are indifferent about money, which is a characteristic rather of those who have inherited their fortunes than of those who have acquired them; the makers of fortunes have a second love of money as a creation of their own, resembling the affection of authors for their own poems, or of parents for their children, besides that natural love of it for the sake of use and profit which is common to them and all men. And hence they are very bad company, for they can talk about nothing but the praises of wealth.

I think a lot of times it's the jealousy that makes people hate those who are powered by parents. Honestly, we all do not have respect for those who are cocky, despite whether they earned the money themselves or they are powered by their parents. The car belongs to them. It is a natural tendency for us to achieve our goals through the easiest way possible. It's not like those who are powered by their parents are taking 9/10 of their parents' total savings to buy an expensive ride... Even if they are, so what? That's their way of life. The world is unfair and those powered by parents simply has a head start.
