Too young by far. Had I got this car at 16 it'd be totalled,me possibly dead,and others at risk on the road. I thought I could drive then.If only I knew. Listen to us when we tell you that the insurance will be far more than other cars.FAR MORE. I was looking into getting a vette before the evo and guess what? Insurance was cheaper for the corvette. I was 22 years old. I cant imagine 16.Even on mommy and daddys policy youre gonna pay more than the car payment itself.

It really depends on the person though... I bought my evo brand new when I was 18 and was not making much money at all... maybe 1200 after taxes but I lived at home and didn't spend money on anything else really and here I am 2 years later with the same car and I don't regret it one bit... And no tickets thank you very much well thank your passport that is haha... 16 is very hard though because most likely you don't have a full time job but it is possible if you want it bad enough... Check insurance first... I almost had to take my car back to the dealership when I saw insurance rates on like 500+ a month then got lucky and went through military insurance company(USAA) and got it for 220 a month

i got mine when i turned 16 and have had it for 3 years, its not too extreme for a first car as long as the driver is responsible and can respect the car

the bastard

Evo is a little too much car at 16, like others have said if I had an Evo at 16 I would be dead

There's no way you're going to drop into a $20+ hour job with just an A+ cert. I've been in IT for about 3 1/2 years have an A+, and Network+ certs, and it took over two years to break the $15 mark. IT is full of newbies. You're going to need prove yourself at a much lower wage and get a lot more experience under your belt if you expect to make that kind of money, especially if it's going to be your first IT job.

sorry to burst your bubble but you will not make $20 an hour just with that cert.

a+ is like the minnium for call center type work which is more like $7 an hour.

What ever you get, one thing i learned its better to buy it stock. That way you dont have to worry about fixing other peoples mistakes, i.e. bad wiring jobs, crappy motor rebuilds, etc. And youll get more enjoyment out of it when you start putting power makers on.

^if ur only 20 and on ur 23 car u need to a.) Get the hell off the road or b.) Give up driving for the safety of the rest of us. I've got friends that do demolition derbies and have went through less cars in ten years.

just get a loan and have your parents cosign with you. you give the seller a check and their payed off, then you just pay your bank the monthly payments.

well, if he doesn't respond in a few days i take it he doesn't go on this forum anymore. and if he doesn't go on this forum anymore, i think it's safe to assume he didn't go with the evo
