    After 3months of taking tests and all another $hits finally got today my driver License! Woohoo!
    Cake for everyone.

    Well actually I was looking for a suggestion what car to buy , have $15k Budget what would you suggest from cheap sporty cars?
    For this budget I'm currently looking at BMW Z3 , or Pontiac GTO , both of them are cool so if you would have $15k and would need a car what you would take?

    :rolleyes:

    Buddy! Feeling exhilarated after getting the license!? Drive carefully till you become an expert. BMW should fall within your budget but that should not be the sole criteria to select a car. There are so many features to look for in a car. Analyze and select :D

    Congrats man. As to your car....unless you have a couple hundreds every time you head into the shop I would say swap it for the GTO.

    Yeah of course the Beamer is nice but your insurance (depending on your age) and maintenance fee will be extremely high. Not even a simple oil change you can do by yourself. So I'd say opt for the GTO unless you have the money to upkeep it....

    congrats!!!!! I remember when I got mine, hmmmmmm. I failed twice lol but finally did it. If you have 15k for a car you should get a used BMW or a GTO.

    I paid the equivalent of $700 for my car and it's done great over this last year. I like cars but when you constantly throw money at them they suddenly suck :)

    The good thing is that my car cost a weeks wage. If it breaks down and costs too much to think I will just scrap it and get another cheap car. I think the time I will get a nicer car is if I have $30k in savings to just buy it cash.

    I would try and find a Civic SI or something good on gas.

    Sure looks matter, but in this day and age, and increasing gas prices, you are better off looking for fuel economy.

    Congratulations on getting your license.

    I'd get a good gas mileage car. You'll like the low cost on gas alot more then sportiness.
