LOL! I made my wife drive my no-AC kia. The next day, as she climbed into her mazdaspeed, she said I needed a new car.

It's cake to save even on minimum wage in those conditions.

I had an intern working for me last summer that was so utterly pampered it made me sick. Crying about which college to go to without even a worry about paying for a dime of it. Dad has multiple corvettes in the garage and is buying him a new Focus ST with a deposit already on the car. Must be rough.
I dunno I've been working since I was 15 and at 17 there was no way I could buy a evo cash. You could not touch an evo for under 25k when I was 17 besides that what jobs are you gonna have working 15-17 thats gonna be good pay and full time, Unless your Selling drugs I find this very unlikely.

I had a 350z @ 17 because my mom bought it and I made the payments on it ( I useto hear all kindas stuff like it was a lease, I sold drugs all kinds of crazy things)

30...it's car #11 for me (I love variety). The Evo is the 2nd longest car I've owned and it'll probably stay with me for awhile now that I'm into motorcycles. They're a lot cheaper to buy/sell often.
