I gotta agree. I had friends who worked a lot of hours a week in high school, and they could barely keep up with keeping their beaters insured and on the road, gas, insurance, maintenance, even on a reliable older car can be a few hundred or more every month. And with work just so they could have the damn car they often did not have time for clubs, sports, partys, etc...so definitely not worth it.
It is pretty typical to see, the kid works their ass off at work so they can afford their car which they need to drive to work, nasty cycle.
For those who say they bought it in cash at 16-20 y/o, I'd like to know how the heck you had 25-26k + ttl in the bank at that age, it certainly wasn't from working a cash register I would not think.
And more on topic, I am 23, graduated college last year and got a MS3, but it was not what I really wanted so I recently traded it + cash for the FRS.
