What should my next car be?

One serious advice though as you're 19. If you can put away $400 a month for a car you can easily put $100 in to a mutual fund. Start investing, you'll be surprised.

That is something else I was looking into, but I have no clue where or how to start. I guess I will read into it more. Is that something you do? What are the chances I lose my money? What are the realistic returns on one over say a 15 year period?

Mutual funds are pretty safe, but I would suggest you to read and build your own opinions. If you can consistently keep investing about $1500 a year for 15-20, you'll have good interest coming off your investment. But things change, 15 yrs is a long time. So read and learn.

that's just sad for a Z28, my foci would beat that. if you not running 12.50 or faster you should be making comments about having a Z28. you Z28 is the slowest one i know of. a couple of friends have them and they all call my car the slocus b/c they are all running low 11s on street tires with no spray.

It's just my daily driver.

I had a '00 Z28 SS running 10.8's .................then I got into trouble with the law & had to sell it because I wasn't mature enough for a vehicle that powerful.
