You can be all responsible when you're married and have kids. If you wait until then, it will be to late. It's hard to convince the wife you want a dedicated sports car when you need to be able to fit two car seats and have to pay for the children's doctor bills and hobbies.

You're going to have to look at your payments plus insurance vs your living expenses and requirements. Since I don't know how much you make, as a guess the answer would be to wait. I think these cars are supposed to msrp at around $60k and up. The car market is fraged right now so prices are stupid high. I'd wait a few years for the car market to correct itself and prices to come back down to where they should be. By then you could probably get one for the amount you saved and then not need a loan.

I think your GTR used to be owned by cars across Texas? But love the vid

I know it was a Texas car at some point, but it was owned by a doctor

taking a lot of things into account. I know I have the finances to afford my dream car. For me it's The MkV Supra with the killer B58. It's a 50-60k car all day long. I'm a Sr service tech at a quick lube franchise that promotes growth.I get paid decently. I already have the skillset to work on cars(I dd a N54 335i lmfao) so a lot of wrench turning was built as well as from work. A big thing I noticed is I eat out a lot for lunch. I'm spending about $10 a day on snacks and drinks from the local grocery store. I realized that I should cut that by half and save a good chunk of change. Then I realized I shouldn't spend money on things that aren't bills/payments(those are a must) as well as things that ARENT for my car. If it brings no value to me living or being able to drive my car then it's not needed. Gonna be doing that from today on out and we'll see the payoff soon.

Wont be disappointed by either. Funny how the R35 is so much cheaper

I drive a 2011 cts-v coupe 6 manual black on black on black and I paid $725 a month till I owned it. Great feeling. Edit, I got tired of a monthly payment so I starting paying weekly $169....till it was paid for.

I expected to get more connects about selling a 69 Camaro for a miata

People said I'm crazy by buying 09 and with 68k miles. I Did anyways, I'm second owner, 2 keyfobs, never moded. Paid 43.8k :) Left me tons of wiggle room. Did trans first its a stage 2 :) no accidents, the original owner had to sell it fast and I hop on it. Wanted 2013 and up. Car been trouble free, knock on wood! :)

Nice play.

Saving to get a car is easy but if I’m working a basic job how would I afford monthly insurance on a sports car

If you're buying the car out right without a loan or payments this shouldn't be to much of an issue unless you have a lot of points on your license. If those thi go do not factor then focus on getting yourself to a level of work where that isn't an issue. Look to advance, if advancing isn't an option look for a new career path. Either trade school or college is aways an option. My friend became an electrician at 29 and I went to law school at 37. If you take a look at your job and realize it can't get you to where you want to go, don't complain about it, find a way to change it

I think this is so much harder if you're into old cars like 70's or even 60's
