24, paying for the Z myself, and for insurance. I guess i'm spoiled since i'm going to be on my parent's insurance policy, but then again I'm paying for that too.

Spending $600 a month on a car when you are 23 IS realizing the value of money? That $600 a month could go to alot better things than a car (you could buy a POS beater for $4k and not have to pay monthly payment). (not to mention insurance)

you know its value, its just priorities. im making plenty of money to afford $600/month on a car and still have plenty left over, so im getting myself a graduation/birthday/new job present. i like to spend my money on where i spend the most time. aside from work, thats my car (about 2-3 hours a day) and my computer (who knows how long?), so there ya go.

Hmmm that much on a car when you're young? I dunno depends on income. I paid my car in 1 payment and a trade-in. That's it. And I waited to be able to justify such an expense meaning there's plenty more that's invested/kept away to justify it. Blowing half a paycheck on a car like this is ridiculous I agree.

An no you don't need to sell drugs to make a good living lol

i'm 6 and half years old. i've had my z for about two years now, and i paid for it all by myself unlike most of you spoiled b*tches. I wasnt sure if i was going to be slide into it as easy i did, you know, with the mortgage and all. i got a lot of lawns lined up this summer so i'm thinking about making a few mods, maybe some NAWS so i can start running low 7's. nothing makes me feel better than rolling into the grade school parking lot in my z, especially tuesdays, i dont know what it is about tuesdays, but d@mn that sh*t feels good... because i know when everybody looks at my z and sees me in it, they're thinking "wow! that's guy is so cool, he paid for the exotic unattainable sports rocket all by his little bitty self!!!"

Whats it to you what someone else does with their money? Some people like to have nice cars others sniff their money up their nose others buy electronic gadgets that cost too much. Ive had a car financed since I was 17. Being able to pay bills & taking responsibilities IS realizing the value of money. DO you think dropping $100-200 every weekend at some club is a better way? Thats a car payment. We re not talking about buying S500s here, these cars really arent that much.
