I tried to go testdriving for a new car today and couldn't. I'm 20 years old, and I guess that's not old enough. Everywere I went said I had to be 21. Is that not kind of stupid? I tried to test drive a wrx, an rsx, a tibberon, and a prelude. None would let me.

I was a car salesman and it is up to the dealership, I worked for a Hyundai and Dodge dealership and when a young person came up wanting to test drive a Tiburon GT or an SRT-4 we kind of blew them off because in most cases they just wanted to drive them. I have driven most of the good stuff in America and my favorite bang for the buck is the 400HP GTO, it doesn't look very sporty and it's quality isn't the best but you can't beat laying down all that power in a $30,000 car, plus I was friends with the salesman that let me drive it so we took it for a little while playing with C5 Vettes and just destroying Boxters. I was kind of wanting to see how well it ran against a Carrera.
