This just kills me. Im trying to talk a buddy out of getting his new kid driver an M3. No kid needs that sort of HP. 2 folks are dead and it didnt need to be that way.

Horsepower, or the car in general, was not the main problem here.

Certainly contributed to the mindset that she had a souped up sporty car if those were her comments at the beginning

Bingo - "Mindset", or lack thereof.
Not the car. With that "mindset" the results would have been the same in a '66 beetle. |

Ben learned to drive in my Prius. He always brought it back with higher mileage than that with which he took it out. I knew he wasn't speeding or at least not attempting "jackrabbit" starts (with the Prius more like quick tortoise starts), but years later I learned he did that by not slowing down much for turns. He drove for years before his first accident, so I assume that was safer than speeding down the road showing off... It's all about mindset--I agree with the comments above.
