gotdamojo06 Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 personally i would buy a nice car for like 10,000 and then put some into the rig and the rest in the bank Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vasto Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 Z3 and Z4 are not the type of cars I would want to drive. An M3 is really nice but there is no way you can get one for 18k. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectrascope Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 should rephrase that will have 18k for down payment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I guess it would depend on weather where you live to see if a bike is a practical purchase or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vasto Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 (edited) Buy a used car for about 12k, then use the rest for insurance and maintance. (That way you don't have to worry about those pesky car payments) Edited November 2, 2006 by Vasto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdingeling Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I went for the car, as it is the best option especially if you have 18k to spend! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celcius Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I chose "Buy a cheap car and put rest of money into rig" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMeeD Posted November 2, 2006 Posted November 2, 2006 I would buy a car that meets your needs but nothing too extravagant. If there is any money left over I would put some away for payments then use the rest for whatever I saw fit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
i_lag Posted November 3, 2006 Posted November 3, 2006 Buy a nice compact car, and either save the rest of the money or invest it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
