I was 18 when i first got my car, and i wasn't ready. you might want to reconsider a few things.
can you imagine asking your parents for money to buy a catback exhaust or some wheels? lol

i do pay for insurance and other things, i can't really afford to mod it haha. it probably isn't the smartest idea for an 18 year old kid to have car but everyone wants a car at this age because there's so much freedom instead of riding transit

I ended up paying around $150 a month for my Turbo Supra/RX-7, with full coverage and at a 10% discount.
My Twin Turbo 300ZX will cost about 1500-1700 per annum to insure (with full coverage, 10-15% discount and insured for an "N" driver).

Well, $2800 was only 25% earlier this year. My discount went up to30% after, but I mean, 5% more is barely a difference when I renew next.
But yeah, that was a shocker to me too..plus when I insured it, I had to fork out another $710 to get the Replacement Policy through the insurance company, which in the end, is a FRACTION of the price ICBC wants for their policy.
And no, I did not have mommy and daddy reaching into their pockets! There's such thing as working and SAVING money.

How can you save money when you pay $2800/year for a corolla?

When I was shopping for my car, I looked at insurance costs for everything I was in the market for. I was looking at preludes, then I was shocked at the insurance costs. I mean, when your car isn't worth that much, paying $2-3Gs a year is a lot of money.
