probably not, why? cause your not 18.
You're probably gona need a co-signer. And if their credit isnt good. 500-800$ payments a month.
Truuust me.
And, insurance, its a sports car. It will be ^^^^^
Can you afford it? Do you have a job that can pay for gas, insurance and car payments? Oh and if you're parents are ****** (I mean no offense) and they start making you pay for rent, that will be fun.

I'm having my parents co sign and they have a credit score of 760. I can get an interest rate of <5% if I go used, lower if I go new. I can also take a loan through citibank on my dads business account for 4% but that has a maximum of $13,000. I'm not sure which way Ill borrow the money but with my parents credit I can get a great rate.
Insurance is going to be a pain though. So far ive only been able to get quotes for just under $300 a month. I'm going to see if theres a way I can squeeze the Z in my parents policy and me be a secondary on a cheaper car. I make around $1300 a month so I'll be able to pay for everything, I'm still in highschool.

Bought mine a month b4 my 21st b-day w/ cosigner in MAR06 for 19k. (03 Touring w/55k) Re-financed that May. Dropped the cosigner and cut the interest rate in half by doing so. B4 re-financing, interest was about 12.6% or something @ about $450/month. After re-financing, interest dropped to 6.74% @ $415/month with no credit prior to initial purchase.
As for insurance I'm paying about $144/month after driving my Z for about a year. Just to give you a better perspective from a younger Z owner. And in the interest of the thread I just turned 22 today!

26. Payin for my 06 Z, which i just got less than 2 months ago, and my house. In a way i'm glad i didn't have my Z when i was younger, would most likely have gotten into trouble with it, racing and stuff. But now that i am more mature than before, i can respect my Z and the wisdom of the older folks.
