Honestly, I think cars go with your age. Driving a nice car at a young age will just make your life harder when you have to down grade and drive something cheaper.
I didn't get my first car until I was 25. Well, I didn't need one and I couldn't afford one before hand. I don't know how old you are, but I am not telling you how to spend your money.
But if you feel the need to change your ride, why not?

Don't you have to pay for university these days, or did they do away with tuition once I graduated?

haha bruno, i was just thinking the same thing
i wish at that kind of money at 19....actually i wish i had that kind of money now
w/ $40k you could pay for like 3 years of university living away from home.
$10k will only get you 2 years of tuition at university, not including books and stuff

Two terms in school cost me $10K I think... lemme see... 8 months rent = $4K, 8 mos tuition = $5K... that leaves $1K books. Well... I guess a little more than $10K then... like say $13K for 8 months of school incl food/clothes/drinking/cigarettes. Plus I modded my car when I was in school two, and I still had winter cars every year... so school was a little more than that for me. But that's the minimum I would say.

i paid $5k tuition, 8 mos rent w/ all utilities $6k, groceries ~ $2k
and $1k for books so right there is $14k not including going out and having fun, that's just for your living expenses.

ya i am really tempted to get the sti but i jus called my friend and he said he is paying almost 800 a month jus for the car and he said when he was driving his WRX he was paying around 500 so i might get the WRX instead of the STI and it would be a new car if i get the Subaru

As for school, why go to college, why not attend university? Sounds like money isn't an issue in your family.
