I think it is a good idea that you stay in school first by the looks of how you put your sentences together and your spelling...

I understand the appeal of the Z06 sitting in the showroom...I've felt it myself. I've had to force myself to walk-away and get a rational perspective....I love my C6 and I don't need two Corvette's. Impulse buys are generally not a smart move....especially when you're talking about a $70-80K car. Your brother's right...save your money. Don't be car poor.

Being the Father of 3 ranging in age from 12 to 19, I recommend you further your education. It's hard to imagine when you're 17, working...earning some money and having fun but one's education makes a huge difference over time. (end of Sermon)
