Hey alps, don't worry man I'm in the same boat. I'm 20, I just bought a s2k and I'm in so much strife atm. The term "baller" given to p platers who drive s2000s really do apply; I pay $3,000 for insurance / year, plus paying off the loan. What's worse is that I have a daily too! I can probably buy another one in 4-5 years! Stick with it man, I'm taking up a part time job just to support my addiction.

Keep ur head uP man. U wanna b mature? Work full time study at night. I dunno how half the p platers afford to own an s. I got off my ps in April this yr, but owned my s2k 16mths prior to that and was working ft and studying ft. I've had very similar problems with my s the same that u have, and have just managed to pull thru most of them slowly, but there are a few biggies left to sort out. Also, I didn't get a loan for it so it was much easier for me to pay for the issues I had, mind u the year before took forever to save!! It's really uP to u dude, but if I were u, like others have said, you've come this far man, get what really needs to be done as ur first priority, then worry bout the rest

Thanks dude! i think i will. even if my car has to sit unused in the back yard. i'm thinking of getting a run around car so i stop using the S soo much and causing more and more problems all the time. my lil bro is saving for a car when he turns 16 in feb. might help him save and get something decent that i can drive aorund as well.

Screw that you're not going to drive anything but your chariot :P. just be easy on it for now and don't blow unnecessary cash on it!. Maybe get a long term loan (30 years) and secure it with something so you pay lower interest. I'm a finance major so I can give you some advice on how to lower your monthly payments.
I'm 21 and finishing uni in a month but I work semi full-time as well. I rate studying and working is the way to go, work 3 days a week and study 2.
Like everyone says, don't give up unless you have no choice... rock on!!!!
p.s. ill buy your wheels

Yer maybe i should extend the period. it's at 7 years with 6 and 2 months remaining. i'll give the bank a call. i can make the repayments and still have cash spare but it's the extra expense the car keeps costing me that leaves me broke. it's not a couple hundred dollars. it's always a few gs the car costs me. they're such a high maintenance car.
