Congrats. Just like everyone else said, respect the car and you'll be fine. Keep a cool head. You don't have to race everyone who rides your bumper or revs next to you.
I would say join BMW CCA and take some driving schools if you get a chance. I believe they offer some defensive driving courses as well. I thought I was a good driver until my first school where I quickly learned what a bad driver I was. And most importantly enjoy the awesome ride! =) |

You should de-badge it. I did it to mine and so many fewer people try and get me to race since they aren't sure what it is.
It's modest, too.

congrats on the ride man. got my 6 when i was 16, just traded it in (end of lease) n picked up my M. Just be aware of everyone around you. just because it doesnt seem like it bothers people, you have to know that no matter what its bothering someone. Be humble and soft spoken about it, it makes people see that you understand the true privilege that it is. Im sure you know how powerful and dangerous the car is after spending less than 5 minutes in it so i dont think you need to hear the same spoiled kids in fast cars schpeel, gets repetitive but just remember it. enjoy the car man use it well. make sure u bust ur ass in school, make that your job while ur dads making the payments (thats my deal lol). Last thing....there's gonna be those times where you may get some shit for it so just remember the phrase...hi hater

 Sorry to be so pessimistic, but it's such a bad idea on so many levels...it is extremely dangerous, not financially responsible, not even useful for you yet, etc. It wasn't even a choice for you. Your parents surprised you with a 415hp beast before you even have your license or a place to drive it to. LOL. I am about your age and I would honestly settle for a slower, less expensive car with some $$$ for tuition and living expenses...if I had the choice. |

 I'm 18, and honestly as much as I would love an M3 like that... I probably would take that and trade it in for a basic 3 series or even an Audi A4/A3. The biggest problem is your parents are HUGELY enabling you, and now you don't know what it's like to work for anything. I love M cars and just BMW's in general, but I know the delayed gratification I will get from waiting 4-5 years before I can purchase one on my own will make it sooo much more satisfying and rewarding. Plus by then I will be somewhat more mature and experienced in all aspects of driving. It's not your fault, I just don't understand this kind of parenting at all, that's just ridiculous and completely unnecessary. |

Not that any of you are haters but . . .
Don't listen to the haters, make good choices, appreciate the mechanical piece of art that you own. Most importantly remember that you are responsible for yourself, your actions and an "investment" that costs more than what many people on this earth will make in a lifetime. every experience amounts to what you make of it, and this is no exception. Congrats! |

Haters?  Yea, "make good choices" Great advice!  OP is 16 and I'm sure he knows right from wrong because he has had what, 1 or 2 months of driving experience?  Responsible for himself? WTF does that mean? Does he even know the definition of responsibility? He is still experiencing puberty. And finally, a car is the WORST investment anyone can make. Nothing depreciates faster! OK, I'm done |

Let's face it, no 16yr would return ANY car. The fault here is all on the parents. The OP is innocent and doesn't know any better. |

hey congrats!!! i just turned 16 myself last week. i know what your going through right now with the whole criticism thing. just don't make a big deal about your car to other people, and don't make a big deal when people question your parents decision. i get so much stuff at work it is not even funny. the funny thing is that i used to motocross myself too! congrats! i just wanted to share because i found it ironic..
