A mustang is too much car, and I would not buy a Mustang for a 15 year old either.

As far as a sliding scale, I suppose you would also say then that buying your child a $10 million mansion for cleaning up their room is also ok?

The point is that while we do use carrots to motivate our children, there is a HUGE difference between a $2 matchbox car for your 5 year old and a $65k Porsche.

Let's have a dose of reality here...

P.S. I'm curious. Could you explain why you think that giving a child a $65k Porsche at the age of 15 is going to prepare him to succeed in life? How is the $65k car better in that regard than a $10k used Honda? You said you could cite numerous examples, I'd be curious to see them.
