I'd rather have my kid growing up not spoiled, have a strong work ethic, who appreciates the value of money, and works hard to earn something.
That and the potential for what can happen when you mix a high performance V8 car and an adolescent driver.
Plus, I'm going to have to pay for his/her college tuition...so college tuition > M3

Maybe give your daughter a beater car for her first year of driving (keep the M3) and then give her the M3 a year later?
My advice is probably not that great since everyone votes "no" so far. I'm just trying to point out that not every teen with a fast car will be wreckless (yes, I agree the majority will be). Plus you have a daughter and not a son, maybe that will help? haha

After seeing people I grew up with die at the ages of 15-21 I say no and yes.
Beater for a first year and then the M3 if she deserves it, I mean who wouldn't want to give their kids the best they can when they can be trusted and appreciative?
