I agree, most of the times it's the parents. However just because you are young doesn't mean you can't afford nice things. At 22, I bought a brand new car, a 2008 fully loaded Altima- it was $32k sticker (Paid $29k OTD). Then proceeded to buy a house and get married over the next 4 years.

I just turned 27 and was looking to buy a brand new 370z this year but after a lot of research and thought, I decided that I didn't want to spend $45k on a car to have it sit in the garage most of the week (I'm a consultant), in addition, the changes were so minor from a 2010 to a 2013 that it almost wasn't worth it so I began to look for a nice pre-owned one. I lucked out and found/bought a pristine 2010 Coupe 6MT + Sport + Touring + Nav with only 16k miles on it. It was also one of the last 2010s built (08/10), one owner, and well under my $45k budget for the new one, so that was icing on the cake. Only downfall is it's Black but it's growing on me. My ideal color is blue or white, but I wasn't as picky with color since I was going pre-owned and Zs equipped how I want it seem to be pretty rare in Chicago.

Now that I have the Z- wife wants a new car.....women....
