So how do you under 25 afford your Ss? Born into the right family?

19 and I'm paying mine off with the money I made from my totalled miata, parting it, and from an internship i'm working at now. full time for now, part time during the school year (hopefully). it sucks working so much but I gotta pay this car off somehow.

Sorry to hear about your Miata. Regarding how hard you work...Good for you!!! Maybe cliche but hard work will always pay off so keep up the good work!

How sad...but I'm sure you are enjoying this new S immensely.

I was forced to get a new car too when my old integra special LS model got rear ended when I stopped in a 25 mph on a one lane residential road for a couple of bikers to cross at the center devider. The guy in the big truck got out an apologize for all of the trouble that I'm going to go through. I didn't know what to say when I was so mad so I said nothing. It was my very major first and last accident in that car after 20 years of ownership...still miss it quite a bit.

I bought mine brand new w/ a hardtop at the age of 19. I pay for all the goodies on the car too and insurance

I wouldn't say I was born into the right family but if you have your priorities set right you should be able to purchase this car.

The only thing that I thought really helped my case out was the fact that I didn't have to pay rent.

I'm working at the bank now and aiming at being done with school finally this spring.

Sad to say I didn't get tickets so I was wondering about that too last night but when the game was over all the Tennessee fans who flew here for the game were sad and quiet and all the Cal fans were happy. It ended up being 45-31 Cal...Bears ftw!

If you start teaching here before 2010, I'd be all for taking one of your classes!
It was a good game


I bought the car when I turned 18, paid it off using scholarship money since I had some scholarship money to spare. =x

Fantastic!!! Good for you...especially on finishing school this spring!

True, it does help quite a bit without having to pay rent or a mortgage.
