Your missing the point. The greatest material pleasures in life are those that you desire for a long time. You work towards a goal, and its sweet when you can finally get what you are after. It seems his parents are robbing him of this to a certain extent.

The other issue is his peers. Kids with fancy cars like that will have their groupies, but they will also earn the resentment of a number of their classmates.

Dunno. My wife and I do quite well, and I certainly won't have my kid driving a rust bucket when she turns 16. But she won't be driving a new Porsche either.
