should I really get myself into debt?
Im 17, turning 18 in a month… and I dont know if I should buy a car or not. I already have a 2006 VW GTI, but I dont know if I should buy or lease one. I really like the BMW Z4 M, and the Porsche Cayman.
I only make $800 a month, and I dont have any bills at all. Should I take advantage now that I can? or should I stick to my current car? thanks!
btw, I live with my parents, and dont plan on moving out anytime soon. They pay for EVERYTHING… even the car insurance, so I all would have to do is pay for the car.
“…insurance, so ALL I would have to do is pay for the car.”
I wouldnt mind giving up my entire paycheck for a car like these two… but I really like my car, and if I go for one of these two, I am going to have to give up my car.
My car has a $3000 Alpine sound system, and I spent $2,500 on wheels/tires
Porsche offers financing for up to 84 months. This will keep the payments under $800
BMW is offering a lease special for the Z4 M. $549 per mo. 36 mo. $3,600 due at signing
At what age should I switch cars? 21?
by that time I should easily be making over $1,000 a mo.
OKAY… so if I cant afford these two… and I get where people are comming from, what would you think about the 2008 Audi TT or BMW 328i Coupe?
Can you please tell me more about it? How fast can it go? How much would one cost? Are they convertibles?
Basically, please just tell me everything about them.
Thanks

i need to find somewhere on the internet that i can find the top speed and horsepower for a 1980 Porsche 924 turbo
I am looking at 2001 Porsche 911.It has 59000 miles , 6 speed,Dark Blue , tan interior.The dealer wants 29995.00.I am wondering what yor thoughts are on the car.Are they expensive to maintain?Any major problems with that year?
Steve Sutcliffe gets behind the wheel of the new 911
I like the Targa top model but the market value for the Coupe seems to be higher and Coupes also seem to be harder to find. Why do some folks shy away from Targa’s? Any ideas?
Which for a 16 year old thats only going to drive 4-10 miles a day, A Porsche Cayman, or a Lotus Elise?
Either a
PORSCHE CAYMAN
Manual trans, Teracotta(red) interior, black exterior, no extras just basics
or a
Lotus Elise
Manual trans, orange exterior, black interior, all basics
PS. also take into consideration - speed, handles, peformace, styling, eye catch looks or head turning effect, comfort, least theft, realibility(Will start in 5:00 am or not), insurance, gas consumption, which is best for moderate road trips, trunk space, and the one I can bring to college with me, and best to last the longest, SAFETY, & bRaNd NaMe
PS I live in California this might help to make the decision and i need to park it infront of an elementary school and then need to take an hour bus ride to HS and then 7 hours later come back to take the car home.
They’re rubbish off-road (and anyone who wants to go off-road gets a proper off-roader like a Defender) and on the road they only serve to intimidate people, grind up the road and anger environmentalists. People say they have more space inside them, but then so do people carriers. Why do so many people have them then? And why do they bother making them? I’d really like to know.
This stock Porsche turbo does a 8.08min around the legendary Nordschleife. Driver is Motoharu Kurosawa.
