I drove a 92 Integra for 10 years - 6 of which were after I finished university. It wasn't until 2010 that I finally bought another car - a beater at that.

But, I do understand where the need to drive a new car comes from. You're young, you feel as if you're on top of the world, and your friends are buying stuff left and right. Quite frankly, you won't own any decent property in Vancouver unless you manage to save about 100-150K (25% down on a 2-bedroom condo or townhouse in the suburbs), so owning a car may be the only real asset you feel you'll ever own.
