Teen Driver and Boxster
Does anyone have any wisdom to share about letting their teenager drive their Boxster?
My initial thinking on it is "no way" - the insurance rates would probably be astronomical. Also, I looked forward to buying my first Porsche since I was a teenager and the reward was that much sweeter for all the years of waiting.
After some reflection, I can see some arguments in favor of a teen driver. (1) For a relatively small car, the Boxster seems extremely safe from both design and handling/braking perspectives. (2) It would be less expensive - on a replacement cost basis - than buying a new economy car. (3) Why not let them have fun while they are young?
Still, it does seem kind of insane to let a teenager drive a car that can reach over 140 mph.
