I am 20 yrs old as well. I have a 2000 WS6. I purchased it down in Nc over my spring break last year. They set up the loanand everything ( I just needed a co-signer, my dad) My payments are $430/mo for 6 years, due to my negative equity and extended warranty. My insurance is about $180/mo All together its not a bad price for the car. I love it and would pay more for it if I had too. Goodluck man it is tough to get such a wonderful car at this age, but if its ur Dream Car like me its well worth it.

off to the bank today to see what I can get!
lets hope it goes well.
so what would you guys pay for the car, since the overall impression is that its a little high?
figure another $3k ontop of it due to tax, and interest rates from the loan

im 20 i work full time my 2000 ws6 isnt my everyday car... i been paying for everyting since i was 16... its all in how u manage your money..... my note and insurance combined is 600 and some odd cents but i guess its how bad u want a certian thing.. bein in coll i know u prob wont work full time and that means if u did get a car it might slow lots of other things down.. partying... and so on but if u really put your mind to it. its certainly a car worth it... and thats just my .02 cents

thanks guys
i think i will buy the car if i can get the loan. i don't have a long credit history so that'll be a problem. might put my camaro up to push some weight.
most of my money will go towards the WS6

okay, heres an update
i went to the bank, it looks like i'll beable to get the loan I need to buy the car. I talked the guy down to $20,500.
its a black WS6, 2002, 19,000 miles on it. 6spd, ttops, no cd changer, just cd player.
what do you think about that price?
also, when I buy the car, do I pay the tax on the car for MY county? or the county in which I bought it in? My county tax is 7%.....OUCH
there goes another $1500....

My bank would only finance 80% of the cars value leaving me with a 20% down payment and ~1400 in taxes to take care of. Payments are 415 a month for a 4 year loan insurance is 149.96 a month. I'm 22 soon to be 23. Got a 2002 ws6 6spd with 26k for 20K

I just turned 20, and purchased my 02' WS6 for 18,000, and it had 24k miles on it, 6spd, fully optioned with a few cool toys including stoptech brakes 
I purchased my car back in october. Look around for a car you can afford. And some months it looks like I am in deeper debt than I want to be, but if its ment to be, you will be able to do it.

20 when I bought the WS6. 21 now. I took out a loan for $16,500. They approved me for 18K though. I sat down and figured the minimum I could work at $6/hour and still meet the loan payment. I used $6/hour because thats the lowest I would see working hourly. Also had to do with what your APR is.
I am in college as well. If you want to know what I am making, and how I am meeting the payments, PM me .

i bougth my 02 ws6 last june with 16k miles in perfect condition, I paided 20,915 for it at 4.9 for 60mths. my payments are 391.77 and i pay no less than 400 a mth so i pay on the principle. I am in school and sometimes find it a stretch but having the ability to blow the doors off the area mustangs and ricers is worth it all! if you want the car bad enough like i did, you will make the sacrifice....long live the bird!!!!
