Trying To Buy Own Evo Need Advice

im 16 and even though i could just be a spoiled kid and have my parents buy me an evo just for "going through high school", i want to earn it for myself and save my parents the trouble of having to pay for it. I wanted to know what job a 16 year old could get that pays enough to get an evo and how much you pay for your evo monthly.

yes, i drive a benz, its my parents but they let me drive it like my own. its not my car therefore i dont really like to drive it around. also its a really expensive car. i have my own reasons for wanting an evo over a benz. i guess ill just have to pay them back later when i get a job.

car note, insurance, MODS, extensive care and MORE... just to pay for the evo. Your looking at around 1k a month.

$10 a month, won't cut it, unless you just pay for the car and the parents pay the rest. Insurance is gonna kill you the most, unless your parents pay for it.

I have a few friends/college buds, who work ONLY to pay for there evo. They love there car, just not the work hassle and money issue, but... your lucky... I know it sucks, but take advantage of being spoiled... i do

Pick up a 2g DSM and cut your teeth on that first. It's way cheaper and still tons of fun. Learn the maintenance, learn how to upgrade, learn do installs properly, and learn how to tune it. You will be well schooled when it time to get an Evo.

oh

haha i said 10 dollars an hour, not a month. i wish it were, i wouldve bought the evo already with my saved up lunch money. and yes, parents are covering the insurance. and what is a 2g DSM i dont understand these terms. i just know that USDM = us released car JDM = japanese released car

ok the dsm is the eclipse, talon model cars. understood.

^lol

i'd have the parents buy the car, then you can work for all your mods. It's much "funnah" to work for mods, than work just to pay the note.
