my gf bought it when she's just 24... earning about $2.8k. Of cos, the car is under her dad's name cos insurance is cheaper. She paid for the monthly installment and everything else.Originally posted by [w][e][i]:What is your age when u 1st brought your own car?? and around how much are you earning at that time? wat car u brought??

The Suzuki Cultus was Scrapped, but heard that the scrapyard owner's son took the Engine, Gearbox and Comp box out. The GearBox was handmade in Japan, only 5 in the world. Paid US$10K for it.
As for the Honda Accord and the Merc, all sold back to 2nd hand car dealers lor...keep also no use mah....
Went and saw the VW Phaeton just now....nice sia....very luxurious inside...
I work very hard for the cars I owned...a bit too hard I think....tired sia....
Actually, see what is your interest la, some ppl spent more on other things, while i spent mine on Cars lor.....its not that bad, cause I live simple life... -

Learn what? Just need to know how much you can spend and then squeeze yourself into that car.Originally posted by rumie:hey, no offence, really, but think i really need to learn from you. i'm getting poor too...
Even try recording how you spend a month? Then you know where you are leaking. I usually invest in cheap sports, so able to have fun and save-up. My first 2 year, I saved so much that I suddenly decide to find out how much it is to get a car. After some tough decision, got a cheap car to satisfy myself.Originally posted by sweetie05:......got my 1st car at 26. earning bet $4-5k. Honda jazz.

Simple life? Can afford a car at the age of 18 isn't simple at all!!!Originally posted by VW King:......cause I live simple life... -
