I love my car and couldnt imagine wanting anything else but id also like to feel like i could move out and do more than just barely make ends meet.

No offense, but don't take this as advice. If you lost the support of your parents (their health goes bad, they move, whatever) or otherwise had to move out, then you'd be screwed unless you could sell the car quick. The Z is a $40k car up there, so almost $750/month on a 72-year loan if you don't have a trade in (assuming 7% APR which would be really good given your age). That's a lot of money on $2500/month. Almost a 3rd of your income after taxes.
I'm almost to that point (1/4 of my take-home income) paying for a 370Z and 08 Evo X, and it's kind of tight if anything on the cars breaks lol.
