You may want to look into that as it may have you rethinking what your first vehicle will be.
In my oldest grand daughter's case she ended up with an older low mileage Honda Civic. My oldest grandson wanted a Subaru WRX or STi. He ended up taking his step father's older hand me down Subaru Impreza.
It's fine to have wants but, I think you have to look at needs and costs first. Just my old guy 2 cents worth.

Oh yeah i didnt include much info. So im 14, have driven SxS, ATVs, and my grandfathers' minivan (very short distances), but i dont have my license yet. My parents have already said that thay dont want me driving any of their vehicles (too new, the oldest vehicle in our family is a 2019), and that it needed to be less than 15k, i will be paying for it with my money though. I am trying to get ahead of the game.
I am in school, not working YET but this summer i think im going to start at Chick-Fil-A and start earning some.
The insurance isnt too bad as their safety ratings are good, as long as i dont get a bright color (red, yellow, orange, bright green, etc.) the Coupe situation wont be so bad. Operating costs, well no offence but it IS a Boxer, though with a (hopefully) steady income if anything does go wrong i can repair it. Mostly, they seem to be reliable, however.
Tyank you for your advice also
