slow down CHICO!!! wait till you're comfty and have a few bucks saved for a rainy day and then order it. don't rush yourself into anything and shop around first for the place that gives you the best payments. i took about four months in deciding. some dealerships didn't even pay attention to me because i look young. made me feel good in a way since i'm turning 29 soon.

Good Luck! Just, don't go to into hock for a car. It isn't worth it.

Maybe you should Z06bliss? Or I could share some stories (1800 dollars worth of car payments a month a few years back)!

Me too. :( I spend just about everything I've got on the car... I never was good at putting money away for a rainy day. :sad: I wish I was smarter now though, I should've saved for another year of so before buying the Vette. That way, all the mods wouldn't have had to go on credit cards. :yesnod:

ditto on the above posts....no need to stretch early on ......

I wanted a vette bad. Since the age of 2 after seeing my uncle's '62, but it was too much of a stretch right out of college (1987), so I bought the beauty below, an '84 Z28 (used), 5-speed, 305 CID H.O...... I"m glad I got it over the Vette 'cause I beat the livin' **** out of it in 3 years. I would have felt bad about abusing a Vette like that...... Anyway, after some priorities, I finally bought myself a new one for my 30th birthday in 1995.
