This is one of my other forums I go to (basically an asian community forum) and as I see it now, this is turning into that story about the kid with the Benz. I'm sorry, but how does an 18-year old who just got a licence get a GT-R for a BIRTHDAY GIFT, let alone a girl? Not to be sexist, but what idiot parent trusts their daughter with a powerhouse (im not even sure if that's actually a girl...)? It's developing now, but its spiraling out of control so sit back and see what's happened so far.

There have been articles about this sort of thing in newspapers downunder.

From what I understand some parents from asia save up for their kids education. When the kids visit another country to do education and they are on their own, parents allow them to buy a car to go to University or school.

I presume this is where the rich asian kid sterotype comes from. When sometimes their parents are not rich (middle class), but spend their hard earned money on improving their kids future, but parents allow them to buy a car and kid blows more than they should on a car + mods, like a near new EVO, S15, just to name a few cars to impress friends. Also try to mod car, so it's better / faster than friends car. Then if they run out of money or want something better, they sell car + sometimes ask the parents for more money.

It seems from what one article said, some parents give their kids from 60K-100K+, as they pay the full fee price at a school or University, whereas government pays part of local kids education. I gather the money goes into local economy through the school or University if it's public owned.

Sometimes you get the odd rich kid (just like you would see in Europe, US, etc) that spends more than most and that's where a GTR, Porsche, etc is within their budget.

I don't understand why people are making a big deal about this... I've seen kids drive around in 200k AMG's and even ferrari's, just some kid with a good amount of coin backing them.

Some rich people (including rich people from asia, both kid and adult) that I have met tend to keep it to themselves, not advertise on the web that they have this and that car.
