Ambition to do the work required.

There are no restrictions on hours or times once you hit 16. It was all on the up-and-up...I've been paying into social security since second grade.

Thanks guys. I don't have much left over money at all, and I can never buy my girlfriend anything , but it is most definitely worth it! After about 6 months of saving what leftover money I have had, I am ordering my Invidia N1 exhaust very soon!

Anyway its safe to say mine should be up there eventually

Years and years ago I raised my score from the 500s to in the 700s, and bought my first new "fun" car as a reward, a 2005 WRX. I'm anal as shit about my credit now and it stays over 800.

If you need any advice on dealing with collections feel free to PM me! I never had a lot of debt, but I did have a lot of shitty roommates and carelessness in my youth, which in turn led to years-old negligent bills. It only takes a few to really jack you up, but the process for clearing your name is stacked way in your favor as a consumer. That is, if you know how to deal with them.

i got my license late 16 maybe early 17 years of age. Got my dads 99 camry and thats what i drove till i could afford a new car. wanted a new mustang gt but it would have taken me way longer to save up for that. Heard about the ft86 concept being turned into the gt86 production car and followed it and fell in love with the finished product (in frs form)

Nothing racial or anything but...eh... if you did tofu runs it would be cool as shit

Damn at 16 I was walking everywhere. I'm 20 now and pay everything.

I'm 22, paid off the grocery-getter 2008 Ford Taurus a year ago...needed something that i actually liked, so i picked up my fr-s about a month ago...379 a month @ 3.7%, 8 yr warranty, and 70 a month insurance...keep your credit straight and your nose clean with the cops and your insurance shouldnt be too much

Glad to see all the young owners, I get lots of crap from people all the time for owning my car, but I pay for the monthly payments and gas as of now, and all the mods I do. I love this car so much.

[AznKirby]

You get a lot of crap because it isn't feasible to be 16, and own a brand new car, let alone make payments on it.

I was 17 when I got my first car, too. My parents paid for it, and I gradually paid them back. So yes, I "paid it myself", but I would've been taking the bus if my parents weren't there.

That being said, there's always a chance you aren't trolling and found a high paying job, whilst being in high school.
