Insurance companies detect by VIN if what you are telling them is accurate. A kid in a V sounds mighty expensive. Hope he survives. Been there, done that. Poor choice. Get the kid a flash ride with big noise, so everyone will know where he is and that he is coming your way.

if you give a 16 year old a cts-v you actually dont like him very much.... haha, i remember when i was 16 i drove a v6 mustang then when i was 17 i drove a gt, me and my friends would just fly in that gt and it felt like A ROCKET, and were talkin about a mid 14 second car here, i could only imagine what would have happened to me if i was in a cts-v when i was 16... something you definetely need to work up to.

That is remarkable that you are buying a $50K car at 17. You must be quite gifted to have such a job at such a young age before even graduating high school. However, you may want to consider the fact that you will probably be living at home for a very long time. My advice to you would be house first, then the killer car.

Worked as a Medic for years.
If I had a dollar for every car accident I attended b/c of some young kid in Daddy's supplied high powered car, well, you know the saying.
It really becomes a tragedy when they take some innocent driver/pedestrian with them.
Young age and high hp don't mix, it's much like alcohol and driving.....
Unfortunatly some parents have to learn this lesson the hard way.
