yo mate w/o any offence, it was not the speed (Btmwy), even with 3L diesel you can reach that, my friend did 245 km/h with 520d (juiced of course) but that was all in Germany or on motorway. My question was were, I like pretty much Sofia but where the heck in the city, you must have own way or good absorbers, you see that was more of a question. I mean the infrastructure -no offence - still needs big help (no offence here, and there too 
). Gov, just do sh*t about road, why do we at all pay taxes for that???

Age has nothing to do with how well can you drive an M6 or even an F1 car. Rober Kubica is 21 and new test driver for bmw f1 is sebastian vettel wich is 19. All that matters is how mental are you. No one denys that the youth tend to be more lunatic but i've seen absolute lunatic folks over 30 yrs old at the wheel.
22 yrs old doesn't necesarely mean too much power to handle. In fact if the driver is ponderated and experienced this age 20-30 yrs old is the climax for the relefexes and driving characteristics...but what do i know? I'm 22 also.

-tickets for speeding
-accidents
-accidents with ppl getting killed or severely injured.
Therefore it is NEVER a good idea to give a young gun such a car to play around with, even if you can afford it.
A good driver has become a good driver by experience. And you have to agree that th emost young drivers can't have enough experience to drive such a car.
Guys like Kubica, or when he was young Michael Schumacher, have made their experiences allready on track, so they are indeed good drivers, but the most, and that's waaay above 90%, don't have enough experience.
So in generall terms m630 is right when saying you shouldn't give a 22year old guy an M6 to play around with. But he forgott to add: unless he is an experienced driver.

BUt it is a matter of fact, proven many times all over the world, that ppl in the age of 18-22 have the most:
-tickets for speeding
-accidents
-accidents with ppl getting killed or severely injured.

But i agree with you. 100%
The question is: If you have a son and he's about 20 yrs old or so, how can you really check how mental is he, cuz obviusly he will not drive flat out in your presence or any other member of the family. If he is a speeder he will do it without you knowing it or trying as much as possible to hide it. If he get experienced and you see him driving good, till he reaches 22 or so would you make him a present like that?!
Seriously!
