As some of you may know, I'm only 19. I've been saving up for a G and was planning on getting one next month. I have been talking to my friends about it a lot lately, and some of them brought up very interesting points.
When you're 19, it doesn't really matter what car you drive. The 15,000 more dollars I'll be spending on G rather than an Accord or so isn't worth the "compliments" and "coolness" you get from getting a G. And no, I won't have my parents pay for the damn car. They would, but I don't want to be labeled as "spoiled" and "irresponsible". No offense to any 19 year olds whose parents bought them your cars (many of my friends in this case), but I want to do things on my own. I know I want this car very badly, but economically, it doesn't make much sense. Afterall, we all WANT things... but many of you guys already have steady jobs and worked hard to get this car. And I'm only 19... I still want the G very badly, but I want opinions from the older and the wiser.
Talk to me.
