What would you rather own..

[brblx]

i'm with whoever says keep your current car. $60k gross is probably closer to $40k once you factor in deductions for taxes, insurance, and savings (if you're making 60k a year with no expensives and not saving anything...). buying a car that equals or exceeds your yearly salary- no. just no.

plus the fact that selling a new car after two years is pretty much maximizing its depreciation while not taking advantage of the fact that you still have a warranty and won't be due on any major maintenance for a while.

keep your car and use the money to buy a house while prices are low.

This. If you have a chance to buy real estate right now you should. It's all on sale.

S2000 for around $15k

I voted for Mustang but I would of voted for keep car and buy bike option if it wasn't a sport bike choice.

 

[potato28]

If you want a new car, buy a new car. Personally, I would keep it and drive it into the ground.

 

[MDE]

I'd keep it, or get a used 06-09 Corvette.

INSURANCE INSURANCE INSURANCE

At 22 living on your own you're going to get raped especially with those cars. Get rates on all of them before you even think of buying them. I guarantee the rates will change you're mind about what to buy.

'05 M3 or '05 STI - preferably the M3.

This.

I'd buy the Camaro, but wouldn't need all the extra packages that make it $40k. $32-34K 1SS is just fine with me. I care about the power, not leather seats

 

[CRXican]

get the STi

 

[ballmode]

I voted get STI

but...

Keep saving money till you can have 2 cars

 

[theblackbox]

none. need something with 4wd and high clearance.

 

[Koing]

Get an older 03-04 E46 M3, you don't need to spend $30k on one.

Insurance will be INSANE mate...so DEFINITELY check this out before you buy any of those cars!

I would wait and get the 2011 Mustang instead of the 2010. They're suppose to get the new v6 & v8 (v6 is 315hp and v8 is expected to make 400+hp)

I wouldn't buy anything performance oriented used. Used performance car are abused car.

 

[secretanchitman]

keep the car, or get the M3.
