22 with a masters and a great job? Did you start school when you were 16???
No **** you don't buy a new car. I just said $90k bc that about the average of a fairly new but used Gtr, 911, z06..
Yea I live at home. I don't care what some girl thinks about that lol.
But lets be honest. If you have money for a gtr or 911 ~90k, live on your own, then I highly doubt you paid for your schooling and you probably work for dads company. No need to give me life experience tips, doubt your much more experienced than I am. Be grateful you have the fundings for a dream car for many. Maybe one day I will also.
Off topic but I can just tell by the way you 'brag' that you can afford a 90k car you are secretly cheap. You just strike me as the guy who would leave 5% on a $50 bill

Stuart you criticize me for living at home yet you drive an auto Z.. Time to get your priorities straightened sir.
I think girls get more wet over a 22 year old driving stick than a 22 year old living on his own.

Before spending money on a car I would focus on getting funds together to live on my own especially after age 21.
Sorry dude, just cause a grown *** men live with there parents on MTV doesn't make it cool. Your chances of getting laid increase by 50% by having your own pad..just say'n.

The GTR is so boring man. The 350 and 370 you get more joy out of owning than the GTR. A porsche (except the panerama or that stupid suv they made) will be a good choice. They even put some ***** on the boxster recently and now it's respectable. The GTR is a good example of why you should never meet your heros because I've been disappointed by it and appreciated my Z33 more.
not many choices really but the porsche you cant go wrong. There are the bmw M's or amgs.

You're saying I should spend at least $800-1000 a month to feed myself and live on my own just to increase my chances of getting laid???!!! Lmao spend $12000 a year to increase my chances of getting laid hahah. Way to put the ***** on the pedestal.
Im quite happy with my sex life and it's not the only thing on my mind but I guess I'll take the ***** sacrifice and live at home with my family until I'm financially ready to move out. Didn't know life was a race.
Also I'd prefer the Gtr over a Porsche just for the fact that it really is a rare car. At least where I live.

The common logic here is, buy at least 3 cars worth 3000 each to show that you really earned it

Although you can buy a beat up Z for well under 15k.. At age 17 you should be saving up to move out, buying a house and retiring. If you have a spare 20k then maybe buy a Z.

Children live at home with mommy and daddy because they cant support themselves. A grown *** man should be able to support himself or he IS NOT A MAN HE IS STILL A CHILD. Just because your parents have the means doesn't mean you should take advantage of it.
Your 22!, your a grown *** man! wtf is wrong with you? By the time your ready to move out the cost of living will have doubled. You need to break the cycle of dependency now while your still young, its not healthy, and it will actually lead to sub-conscience resentment toward your parents.
Good luck kid.

It should be made clear that living at home while you attend college is fine. However, using the money you save to make yourself car-poor instead of paying for tuition or reimbursing your parents for feeding and sheltering you is a douche move.

I hope that doesn't apply to me lol. I always helped out around the house every chance I get and me and my father were like brothers or best friends instead of father and son. Like seriously, we would go to bars before I even turned 21 every summer and pickup women in his age bracket lol and I tried to dress and act like I was in my 30s. I think it was a douche move on my part to leave because now he has no one to hangout with since I decided to travel around on my own and my mom passed away years ago.

So I was faced with a dilemma. Buy a Z for 19k or save that money for a years rent. Are you guys not close with your families?
Again until I'm financially stable. Ill be living with mom and dad. You guys are too americanized

I have walked a Cayman S in my Z, it doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence with a GTR. Unless the 911 is a turbo or turbo S then it doesn't stand a chance against a GTR.
The new GTR runs between $99k - $110k. The new 911 turbo is about $150k while the turbo s is almost $200k.
GTR spanks either 0 - 60 as well as around the Nurburgring.
What's boring about that?
Before you say anything else, I do have access to both vehicles and I would hands down take the GTR between the 2 all day, every day.
