Default Should I Buy This Quad?

I currently have a Yamaha Raptor 350. I want to get a slightly bigger quad. After a few choices I decided the best is a ITR 450. Im only 13 years old though. Would this quad fit me well. I can go almost full on a raptor 350, and I'm tall for my age. Should I get this quad, its $3,700.
Thanks

My grandson is also 13. Big for his age 5'8" 180lbs. He started riding at 3 on a 50cc. moved the a TRX90 a few years later, then to a Blaster at 9 yrs. old. After that a Banshee at 11 yrs. old. and now he rides an 2014 TRX 450r with pipe, filter, and jet kit. I think he has the front tires in the air more than on the ground.

Ok thanks. I think that right now this quad would be to much, so I will probably just throw some upgrades on the quad I have now

I didn't realize you were only 13.
Yes build that 350.
Get shocks. Then you can go fast. It's all about suspension dude.

I'd save my money. At your age, in a few years you're going to want to buy a truck. I'd rather save my money for that and keep the quad you have now. When you get your license, you'll have the money to buy a decent truck to haul that Raptor 350 around in and go ride where you want.

Thanks for commenting but I would have enough. I have a little over $4,000 and I'm making over $1,000 a year. The upgrade to the 450 would only be around $500. I would have plenty of money for a vehicle. I just need to know if the 450 would be to big for me.
