+1.
My parents could've bought me a new car when I was his age, but they wouldn't have even remotely considered it, for the reasons stated above.
I ended up with a dented station wagon with glasspacks and fake wood side paneling at 16. When I was 17, I bought my step-mom's old Capri (loved it). A year or two later I bought a three year old VW Scirrocco. I didn't buy my first new car until I was 22 years old, and then it was only a $7,000 Nissan mini pick-up.
I know that kid's happy but he has not been taught anything about how the real world works.
