My used 2013 is $286/mo (I paid $21,151 after all gap, added warranties)

so let's assume high, $350. That leaves you $550/mo

As long as you aren't swimming in debt and can manage finances well enough, I'd say you could afford it. My resoning: I afford it on $1500/mo income with $350/mo rent. only difference is my insurance will be $145/mo since I am changing companies from state farm ($175/mo currently)


ALL THIS SAID::: Buy for you. If you want it, you should work to get it. If you only think you want it, you should stay car payment free and buy a puppy, or go kart, or small etheopian child to make use of the money. Hope the information helps
Can a mod move this thread thanks. I also have no credit card debt, i pay it off every month.
