Although I do live at home, I'm NEVER home. I work like 60 a hours a week at the moment between my two jobs, then when I don't, Im usually spending time with my girlfriend. Most of my meals are at eating out/at her house. But I basically put 75% of my paycheck every week towards saving.

Believe me, if I wasn't saving up for anything, I'd move out for college but I just don't feel like having the extra monthly expenses every month when I can stay at home. It helps me out a lot more savings wise. But I put like $500 a week away, so hopefully by the end of this year. I'll be able to walk into a dealership and hand them like 15K/20K for a hefty down payment and get some nice low monthly payments for a 36/42 month loan, instead of having to lease.

Wow, what kind of part time job is this?
![]() Have you tried looking at 350Zs? Or a G35s? I'm sure you could find something with fairly low miles (<65-75k) and less then $15k. Insurance would be less and payments would be around $300 over 4 years. Either way just keep saving up and just pay up front a good chunk in cash to get the car you want have payments down to where you can afford (or have a payment where your dad thinks you can afford).

I like the look of the 2013/2014 370z's. I personally don't like the older ones and a G is not really my type of car. I have my mind set on this vehicle so if I can't afford it at the time, I'm not going to compromise. I'm just going to keep saving until I can afford it. |
