unless he is selling drugs, famous, or his family gave him loads of money, i've never heard of a 19 year old buying himself or anyone else cars.
Since he's into skateboarding I'm guessing his friend might be a pro skater.

He started a online Supra parts store when he was 13. He also sold parts for high end cars like Lambo, Ferrari, Bentley, BMW and Mercedes. After a few years he sold the online store to his dad and grouped up with Dusty from MVPmotorsports and started MVPeurosports. Now he owns a small car dealership in Norman Oklahoma.
He also bought his own 4 bedroom house. It depresses me too.

where did he recieve the funds and resources to buy and resell the products he sold(if he actually housed the products instead of just making a percentage of others inventory)?
i'm not hating on the guy, it just seems crazy to know this kid is that slick.

I know the kid dizzle is talking about also and yeah that kid has serious cash for his age. His supra business was good enough to merge with MVPmotorsports so now hes kinda somewhat an owner of MVP.

From what i remember also most of his sales were done like alot of online retailers the product is stored in other warehouses around the US. He basically sold stuff dirt cheap making little margin to start off with to gain business and built it up pretty big.
hes always had some badass cars. I remember when he was 15 he had a Maserati Spyder. He bought the thing himself. Pretty damn impressive for a kid that age.

haha Yeah i remember him buying that Maserati and driving it before he even had a license. He bought another one that was a year newer. Then one day he forgot to put his parking break on and it coasted into the pond he had behind his house.
That's how he bought the F355. With the insurance money from that 2nd Maserati.
What is really awesome is the fact that he lets me drive all the sick cars at his lot before he sells them. I have driven a few Z06's, a brand new CTS-V, a 2003 Porsche 911 turbo, a couple M3's, an 05 Saleen and of course his Ferrari a bunch of times.
We are going to a car auction tomorrow. He is wanting to buy a 04 or 05 CL65. I hope he does so i can drive it.

I'm trying to think of another kid who had unlimited resources and a hunger for speed. Hmm...
Not hatin' on the kid, I just hope he has a good head on his shoulders. He obviously has business acumen.

Oh he does for sure. He is probably the most mature 19 year old I have ever met. He was going to buy a F430 but decided that buying a house first was a better choice.

Friend of mine on ferrarichat directed me to this thread, said the "kid" sounded familiar. Small world....
My Dad bought a brand new Toyota Supra back in 1994, caused me to fall in love with cars. He offered to sell me the car at a very cheap price when I was to turn 16 so I began working for him at his restaurant making $7/hour in 2003. I signed up on Supraforums and learned about the aftermarket world of car parts. I started buying parts but at $7/hour and having to pay for the Supra albeit a discounted price it got pretty expensive. So I ended up investing $1,000 into an online store to get wholesale pricing from vendors which would help. Surprisingly my site kicked off really well, I started selling to a few people on supraforums and as it grew to other communities I was shipping parts all over the world. By 2005 I made the decision of leaving high school to continue expanding my business. In 2006 we merged with industry powerhouse MVP Motorsports and I moved to TX to work with them. In January of 2008 I moved back to Oklahoma and I now own and operate a small car lot. Through-out the years I've tried other business ventures from insulation, a pizza parlor, to stocks and options. Some have failed and cost me countless dollars, others have done really well. Overall they've taught me countless lessons which I value the most.
Could I have done it by myself? Not at all. I had the support of family and friends through-out the whole process and parents who were open minded enough to let me follow my own dreams instead of pigeon holing me into what they thought would be best for me. I could not have done it without the motivation of those around me and I still feel that my friends and family are the most amazing resource I have.
I hope that clears up some of your concerns and I'd be happy to dismiss any confusion or answer any other questions you may have.

I'm going auto-x'ing once a month and to the track twice a month to feed my need for speed.
Plus it's 10x more fun to cruise around the college campus at 15mph in my Ferrari trying to get phone #'s as opposed to speeding.
