Il be 19 when i get it.
Word of advise, just because you can afford the car doesn't mean you can "afford" it. The payments may fall within your income, but you MUST take into account what will that leave you left with in your pocket. Not only should you consider what will be left as spending money for yourself, but what will you have extra each month for when you want to throw on some nice mods? (Trust me, with all the great mods available for this car, you'll easily spend a few hundred a month extra on adding little things here and there.)

It's no fun owning a nice car if you don't have any money to go out in it.

With that being said, there are a lot of used cars for sale on these forums for pretty cheap. By 2015 come back and check in the Member's Classified Section and see who's selling their cars. You'll likely want to look for something that's close to stock. I wouldn't invest into anyone else's project, even if the deal seems great.

One last thing, if this will be your first new car under your name then you'll likely get a good deal through a big dealership. Big dealerships tend to help first time buyers get into new vehicles. The reason I say a big dealership is because a lot of time they have their own financing...if you want to go that route. It might be easier to have a dealership get you into a 2015 instead of having your bank loan you money on a used car. You'll have to check when the time comes to see what your credit is like.
