What if you get into an accident, have unexpected medical bills, etc? Having less than a grand left over at the end of the month can quickly turn into massive debt if an emergency happens.

If you must have the BRZ, work your ass off and get a raise/promotion, or get a side job sorted to buffer your income. You probably won't be happy with the stock exhaust sound, weird powerband (power suddenly comes on halfway through the rev range and the car goes into drift mode), and crappy stock tires. POOF goes your savings.

I agree… A mile away and you're not even planning to DD the car? That's just silly. I'd stay put and just keep the car you have now.
