PS the mini cooper is a great car... very involving, small, fun to drive, and pretty quick... only limitation is FWD and the interior is kinda shitty.

I understand where your coming from, but in my eyes I focus on getting my son a safe car, not some 86' Corolla with no airbags. I am just getting the loan for my son as he has not built up credit, but he will pay for the gas, insurance, and monthly payments.

Just because someone grew up a hard way doesn't mean everyone else should.
