It will be difficult to find a dealer willing to sell a clean 2011 for under 30k unless it's a strippo or a lot of mileage. Maybe you should start looking here in the vehicle threads. There are a lot of clean examples
yea but i cant pay the forum member full cash. hes not a dealer so i cant give him a 13k downpayment and an IOU for the rest.

unless im misinformed and there are ways of doing this

im getting retardedly frustrated of this car purchase. I always wanted a z but im thinkin i just get the camaro now and the z later or something.

i dont want to make a financial mistake too young for that.

i want to be comfortable in the car, but i also dont want to regret getting a second choice car because i couldnt afford the first. am i being blinded by the z or which do you think is smarter
I don't like OTD prices because I don't know what fees are in NJ, but assuming $3-4k is TTL, you SHOULD be able to find a base 2011 for around 25k... Just gotta look in further locations... Fùck it... Shoot me a text, lets find you a car (31O)eight nine three-42O7

You can walk into a bank and get a loan, and the bank will pay the guy

You dont have to pay cash. You go to your credit union and apply for financing to buy a car from an individual seller. Your credit union will tell you how much you are approved for., and you shop on that basis. If they say you are approved for $25k (for example), hit the forums and look for one around that cost. Make the seller an offer, and if they agree, the bank will send them a check. You will just pay your monthly payment to the bank. Hope this helps..

Penfed and other credit unions, banks, etc. will cut you a blank check (usually limited to 25k) to pay for a private sale used car. It's all on the autoloan section of the respective websites.

If you're having this much trouble just buying the car then you should just stop. Gas, tires, insurance, etc. are all going to kill you. I'm assuming you work a wage job because I remember reading you make money teaching tennis or something. What happens if you get sick for a few weeks at a time where you can't work? Missing a payment isn't an option.

Buying the car is just the beginning. The cost of ownership is another 4 or 5k a year (depending on how much you drive) ONTOP of your monthly payment.

There will always be delicious cars available to you. But if you go big now and life just doesn't roll your way, you could spend a decade digging out of the hole. And those are very fine years to live up.

GL in the search, but definitely be ready to scale it back and still be happy with your place. You have many, many years ahead.

Not a bad plan

Few years ago I wanted a 350Z bad, it just wasn't in the cards, couple years later, lucked out even better getting a 370Z

You have to go for what you want most of the time but within reason...if u think u might put yourself in a bad spot, you probably will.

Good luck!
