Make him wait for something, make dreams and fantasies.

Get him started with a little cheaper, used car but tempt him, tell him that if he drives responsibly and takes good care of that car, in 6 months or something, the two of you will go buy a completely brand new car (like the one you now have) for him. Or set a certain goal, that if he achieves certain grades in school, or does this and that, he will get an upgrade of his car.

The exitment of going together, looking, reading up on stuff, going home and dreaming of what is yet to come is a part of life. I think you are starting him out too large, how is he possibly going to be able to top this later on in his life? Some of the fun is going together with dad, looking at cars, weighing pros and cons, the realization that you can't have everything, like sacrificing trunk space in exchange for a cool convertible. Those are important lessons of life, and I think you have an excellent chance of being able to join him on that trip.

No, let him travel upwards alongside with you, by starting with a little lesser car. Then start looking at new cars in three months or so, and then after another 3 or 4 months, go buy it together. It's fun to do stuff with ones parents, don't take that away from him by having everything served on a platter for him, because that is probably not how life will be for him in a few years.

Take every chance you get on doing stuff together with your son! Share his dream and be part of his life, dreams and hopes, yu have an excellent chance starting with this.

Good luck!
