Yeah I dont know what these guys are talking about I bought my Z which came to about 24-25k after tax and licensing in california and with a 5 year loan at 6.9% interest I pay $454/mo just for my car payment. On top of that, I am a 20 year old male living in one of the most accident plagued (per capita) cities in the country, so I pay about $170/month for insurance...then gas is about $120/month...so lets call it an even $800/mo give or take

Here are my figures:
Since estimates without stats are meaningless here is a quick background:
- New 05 Z / Coupe / Tour / 6SP/ Navi / Aero pck / Air Bags / Convenience pck.
- South Bay resident
- Pampered daily driver
- 9AM Work commute - (approx 25 mins)
- 13 miles each way
- Mid/Late 20’s single w/ clean drivers record. (for insurance info)
GAS: ~$180 (per month)
INS: ~$1040 (6 month premium w/ Full 300/100K coverage - Farmers)
OIL: ~$30 (every 3K miles @ Nissan)
MISC: ~$450 (annual misc. services)
PAID: $38K Out the door. (Purchased 11/2004 - No monthly payments)
I hope this helps.

And as Bofa said, it's about ~$380 - $400 w/o car payments.
It is hard to deny reality.

I pay all my insurance separate from my car every three months. My first year was $1,200. Second year, due to the depreciation of the car I made a new policy for about 900. I'm now at $848 yearly. All quotes are for full cover insurance with $500 deductible.
There are several recent threads about payments and insurance. No need to mention the subject again. But I will mention repairs, routine maintenance and mods. I set aside $200/month for these items. When it is time to buy, say, tires, I have the $800 in my budget. The budget also includes:
Drag racing - about $30
Autocross - about $30
HPDE - about $200
Drag racing - about $30
Autocross - about $30
HPDE - about $200
I pay $269 for my 2006 Z and $120 for my insurance monthly...
And I pay about $120/mon for gas since the premium gas is only
about 2.85 a gallon now
So total... $509/mon.. But the funny thing is, I spend more on Mods than
all of these combined..
