I'm 19, Just picked up my first Z06. I've had about 11 Z28's/Trans Ams so far. Save your money for something you're going to actually want a little down the road like a HOUSE. If you're young, save for that first, get the toys later. I bought one Saturday night, a Black 2002 Z with 7700 Miles. Honestly, It'll be fun to have for a year, but then its gotta go. House is about 10X more important then rockin' a Vette out.

I've had 0 assistance on paying for my cars with the exception of co-signing from them.
