    I make around $25/ hours from my job and investments, and I put half of the money down on my 2021 Camaro 1SS. I am currently 22 years old and I regret nothing. I plan to pay off the car in 1 and a half years, and will go on and get my mom an SUV she wants.

    Best advice possible is don't buy the car you want until you can comfortably afford it. Owning that cool car when your finances are hanging on by a thread is nowhere near as enjoyable as owning it when it's paid off and almost entirely stress free.

    Honestly, I wanted something like a GTR or M3 but my 2018 BMW 340 M Sport is the dream car I didn't know I wanted.
    I make enough now that a 25k-30k car, the payments are barely noticed by me.
    Stock, these cars will do the 1/4 mi in the mid 12s. I flashed a simple tune onto the car and transmission, car runs in the mid 11s. It's awesome.
    It handles amazing. It has brembo brakes. The insurance is affordable and when I behave myself, it can get 30+ mpg. And it looks AMAZING too.
    You never think you want a BMW, until you do. Networking and motivation is a very real thing. I look forward to driving to work, I look forward to driving period. I meet lots of other people at car shows and similar with more expensive BMWs and they give advice.
    The best part?? The 340 is powered by the B58, one of the most reliable BMW engines ever produced.

    • @MrFAMA5
      @MrFAMA5 4 місяці тому +2

      Yep the 340 and M340 are probably the best bang for the buck cars on the market right now. It's one of the only vehicle that makes almost no compromises, while still being incredibly fast. And even then, incredibly fast is an understatement, these cars can get into 10s 1/4 mile and low 3s/high 2s 0-60 with very little mods (downpipe, ethanol tune, good tires), all while still being relatively reliable.

    @epa316 4 місяці тому +12

    I lived like a pauper all through my college years. I put 250,000 miles on a V6 Mustang, and finally, I decided to bite the bullet and get a new GT Mustang. I did this partly out of fear that the V8 is on its way out, (see Camaro and Challenger) so I just gritted my teeth and signed on the line. My GT is a great cruiser fun car, and 14 months later, still has under 4000 miles on it.
    Having said that, just be aware that no THING you can buy will ever bring you true, lasting happiness. Not a new phone, computer, tablet, clothes, car, or even a home. Every object you can buy will lose its novelty, and then it'll just be another thing, so don't bankrupt yourself going for it.

    The only signs I can buy my dream car is when:
    1. I can get myself either a condo unit, with 3-4 personal parking spaces. Or house with 3 car garage.
    2. Have more than $10K+ every month in residual income.
    3. Credit score is past 750.
    I'd like to get a Challenger Redeye Jailbreak edition, and then a M3 Competition, or Porsche Turbo S for a business/executive car when I go to court. My spendings right now are TOO low for my aims to get 2-3 cars at the moment, unless I start out cheap. But I plan to change things around to hopefully fall through with my expectations, because its very difficult.

    Bought my 2014 CLS 63s AMG (70k miles) at the age of 22 and its amazing. 0 to 60 stock in 3.6 seconds is insane. Put 25k down and had a monthly car payment of less than 400$. Payed it off this year at the age of 25. I also have a very low mortgage and live in a modern home in Phoenix Arizona. At the end of the year, I plan on get an 2019 X3 M40i as a daily and only use the AMG as a weekend car. Work a modest 9 to 5 job and enjoy doing it. How I am able to do it is that I budget and only spend money on the things that are necessary.

    Right now I drive and own a 2014 Dodge Challenger R/T Shaker and I love it. I’ve had her for 10 years now and I’ve been looking for a new car. I’ll will keep the Challenger, she is a keeper. My dream car has always been the Audi R8 (2008-2011 model year, V8 or V10, doesn’t matter to me). Ever since I saw it on both Transformers 2 and Iron Man, I feel in-love with it ever since. Finding a really nice well condition one is not hard but for the same money, I can also get a new C8 Vette, and that is my 2nd dream car.
    My father almost bought both a C5 (when the C5’s were new at the time) and a C8 back in 2020. Because of that, I’ve also been wanting to own a Vette.
    I’ve already driven the C8 because my uncle got one and it was amazing.
    I can go the fun/dumb way and go with a R8 or I can go with the “smart” way and get a new C8. If I get either or, I will still be happy with my choice.
    My 3rd dream car is a tie between 2 cars, both are WAAAAY out of reach, and it’s the Agera and LFA.
    If for somehow I win big money, I can try and get either or, but a person can dream right?

    • @ProfessorDrives

    I have a pretty solid list of dream cars. Doug has reviewed 2 of them, Shmeee did the other. One per decade: The 80's: Vector W8. So jealous when Doug did this one. I grew up with the poster on my wall. I did, very fortunately get to sit in one at the Blackhawk Concourse D'elegance in Danville in the very early 90's. The most awesome looking car of the 80's hands down. And the tech was unreal. Child's play by today's standards, but was out of this world in the 80's. Fighter aircraft tech? Check. My mom was considering buying a used Rolls owned by Loni Anderson there, but they wanted a 20% premium just for that fact, so she passed. This was during the '92 recession, so used cars were relatively cheap. The 90's: Jaguar XJ220. Simply the most beautiful sports car that was ever made, especially the Concept LWB V12. 2000's: The Aston One-77. A hair behind the XJ220 in looks, this was the most beautiful Aston ever created, DB5 included. However the, car I would want now (getting to be an old duffer), is not available at any price: The Maybach 6 Cabrio Concept. Just elegance through and through. I was SO hoping this would get to production, but then stupid Covid hit.

    3 months ago I got my first car at 17, a 2013 Audi A4 w/ 6 speed manual. It's not the fastest car nor was it necessarily my dream car. But for how much I love the car, I think at this point, my dream car would be an S4, or even RS4. It's not the craziest dream car. But realistically, I think within the next few years it's something I could reasonably attain.

    In terms of classic cars, they seem to be one of the most attainable for a decent price, and they are popular enough where there are lots of aftermarket parts for them, and they are gorgeous
    Whether i will actually be able to get one or not, im not sure, but it is something i hope i will eventually be able to afford
    If i cant get that, a more modern car i would like thats reasonably attainable would be a 2000s dodge magnum

    I love cars and trucks as a whole, they’re really cool in general! But my dream car of all time is a 2016 Toyota Tundra Limited Crewmax.
    It was a big part of my childhood and fun to be in! Not to mention that the car is just reliable, looks nice, and pretty damn fast for a truck (The 2016 tundra can do 305 to 381 Horsepower!). As much as I love super cars, hyper cars, and just cool and fast cars in general, that truck just makes me want to have it!
    RN I am driving a pilot and really grateful for it! But I just cannot wait to get myself that truck one day! My second and third dream cars are: a 2018 Camaro Zl1, and a 1994 MK4 Supra (lil odd dream 3 car garage but whatever lmao)

    Nissan GTR and C8 Corvette definitely should've been mentioned for that 80k-120k range considering they both out perform most that cost nearly 200k in a higher bracket. Yes the GTR is old and yes it's a Nissan and Yes the C8 is American, but a V10 R8 cannot keep up with those two especially for those prices. Only one that does is a 911 Carrera S.

    I would say the better way is to save up and buy cash when you're young. Live at home, and save every penny for a few years, invest it then get a great cash deal when you have enough. If you finance, you'll pay $8000 to 10 grand in interest to the bank. So cash and private sale negotiation is where you want to be. This was how I afforded my 2005 350Zin 2007, then a BMW 335i that was a couple years old.

    I wouldn't necessarily say it's my dream car, just the car I know I want pretty badly, that will also be somewhat affordable. By the time my insurance rates go down when I turn 25 in four years, I want to be able to pay cash for a 2014 Metallic Gray Mustang GT premium with a six speed manual and the factory glass roof. That car is currently about $25k, but may go down due to depreciation or up due to scarcity, so idk what the prices will be like in four years. But I'm hoping if I save ~$7k a year for the next four years, I'll be able to afford it and then some for the taxes and fees and stuff. Assuming I can find a job making 40k a year after taxes, that would be less than 25% of my yearly income, which I don't think is too bad. Especially considering the money will be sitting in a savings account until the day I actually do buy the car so I'd still be able to withdraw it and use it for other stuff in case of emergency.
