First off, I hope you can take some constructive criticism. You say you're pulling decent income and "your parents don't even want to help me buying something that expensive"... Why would you expect them to help you at all if "you're pulling decent income"? Also, 36k/yr is going to leave you with nothing once you have a car payment and insurance. Expect to live with mom and dad for a while unless you get some significant raises before your car is paid off. I know you might think you can afford the car, and you may very well be able to. I don't know you entire financial status but based on what you have said, it seems like you are spreading yourself thin. Part of growing up and being responsible is being able to take care of yourself and make smart decisions. Sure, we all make mistakes and learn from them too. I think perhaps you will see the reality of what I'm talking about once you apply for some loans and get insurance quotes.
I know you said you were asking about "the car" and not looking for these types of responses but based on the information you have provided, you're going to get these responses. Maybe if you didn't mention your age, financial status and such and just used the search you would have found your answer.
