Like I said, kids will never listen to advice, they just have to fuck it up for themselves. IMO never buy a car you can barely afford to get (since you'll be buying the cheapest, shittiest example of it) and never spend more than 70-75% of your budget on the car itself. And that budget is after you factor in insurance, unless you have a decent job and can do month to month. I know of 3 people right now who blew their entire budget to just barely get the car they wanted, only to have unexpected issues come up that they can't afford to fix so now they're parked. And one of those is a 16 year old hotshot like the OP.
