My son loves cars but he's a realist. He understands he's not going to drive a Porsche at 16. He's asking for a Ford Focus or a Toyota Rav4. He can rattle off the specs of a Porsche 918 Spyder and without missing a beat break off into a Bugati Veyron and how they perform. Love of vehicles can be passed down regardless what the kid drives.
