to all the people who's only main concern is save us from insurance hikes, not everyone that is young drives like a jackass. Some of us might be young but are responsible drivers. my friend's 18 and he is extremly responsible with his evo.

Back to topic just get the evo cause if u don't you will most likely regret it.

I'd probably recommend the Infiniti G35 too,just because the
simple fact that your only 19 yrs old and going to college.FYI I'm 32.
I've only met one younger Evolution IX owner that was 18 and I can only
imagine the trouble he will probably or more than likely get into with it.

Later

I don't get it. Who are these kids driving around in $35,000 cars? I make more in interest and dividends than most people earn and I drive a 14 year old Honda. Take the money you're going to waste on one of these cars and invest it. By the time you're 40 you'll have $200,000 instead of something that ended up in a junkyard.

i think u should keep ur integra for now. insurance will get alil cheaper after u turn 21... alil better after 25, alot better after 30. the evo is a great car but ur just gonna have haters and key'ers in ur college, can u sit in class knowing ur evo's being abused and spit on by mr/ms jeolousy? g35 is nice but its fairly boring in my opinion. i've owned the Z (which is the same car 95%) and i got bored fairly quick. my friend bought a g35 coupe last week and after he let me drive it, i remember how dull the car is. interior isnt great either.

i think u should keep the integra, keep money on the side so u can pull the trigger on the car u REALLY want once u graduate.

You could do that, but I hope most people who are buying an Evo can afford more than just their car payments every month. And the real young ones 17-19 probably aren't even thinking about saving for their future yet. **** I've barely started thinking about it and I know the benefits to saving early.

It's also hard to do when you're coming out of college making more than most other graduates and in a profession where it's standard to double your salary in 5 years. Yeah I coulda got a mazda or something and saved a few hundred a month, but cars/driving is the one thing I really enjoy and so the extra money was worth it to me. Plus had to get the expensive car before getting married so the wifey can't say no

But yeah if I had money that was just there from something like a car accident when I was younger I would just leave it invested and let it earn interest and then buy something I could afford on my salary

i have an evo and i am 20 in college. Why do you care how people see you. I roll up to work in my dress pants and shirt and i dont care what my other co-workers think of the kind of car i drive. Face the facts, at 19 and 20 people look at us as kids. Oh well. But you really shouldn't get the car if your parents r gonna pay for it. that does not show responsibilty and maybe a reason why people will look upon you as a kid.

I say concentrate on your studies. You will never learn the value of a nice vehicle like either one of those until you have to start paying for it yourself.
Keep your Integra, and wait until your done with school!
