    The kid's reaction when the airbags go off is priceless, you could tell this was going to happen form the start of the video:

    When I was in highschool there was a kid that got a brand new M3 for getting his license when he turned 17, this was about 2003 or so, E46 model. Still, that same school there were kids wearing 18K Rolex Day-Dates and TT Datejusts around so it wasn't that strange... I had an E30 1985 318i lol

    Had a family friend who migrated to Australia whose kids go there. I do know thought it's quite an expensive place.

    Yea, all the Grammars are much the same in that respect, my nephews go to The Southport School and even though they're only 7 and 8 respectively, the TAG Heuer F1s I've given them look the part, there are plenty of older kids at that school with Rolex/Omega/TAG watches as well.

    Wow, I never realized that people in Australia had any money, I thought you were all just Roo hunters and Sheep herders. :D

    I believe statistics will show that 30% of Australian kids go to private school.

    Moron, leaning forward the whole time, no leverage on the wheel...
    That's called "running out of talent."
    The punk totalled his Daddy's car. Luckily he did without hitting another car head-on when he crossed the center lines on blind curves.
    Well, with his stupidity on digital media, he can't lie that he was trying not to hit a coyote.

    Sounds like the kid was using the SMG transmission in automatic mode as well, hands are nowhere near the paddles for most of it

    Yep, and from the size of those rocks that launched him, I bet after they hauled the car away, the oil slick left behind was visible from space.
