To buy a car you need to be of the age of majority to enter a binding contract. This age varies from state to state (or province).
Even if you own a vehicle, you cannot insure or register it without a valid driver's license or proof of purchase, ie: note of sale.

I don;t think you have to be a certain age to own a car. For example your parents could buy you a car at 15 or something and give it to you but if you go to try and buy one they probably wouldn't sell it to you unless you were 16.

You can drive at 16 in most states, but, you cannot "own" a car till 18 in all states. However, unless you have a bad relationship with your parents, they can put it in their name till your 18 if your responsable enough to THEM to save and buy one.
Also, even if you found a private seller to sell you one, no insurence company will insure you till 18 either..
