For those of you under 25yrs and owning an S2000, what kind of job and salaries are you holding to be able to afford payments on your S2000? (I'm mainly interested to know about those still in school)

 

Mainly savings and stocks (even though stocks aren't too great right now). Part-time job too but I think I use up all the money I make from the job.

 

24 yrs old
I am a full time college student, but I also have a BS degree, and work full time in Microbiology. Lets just say that I am doing alright with making the payments that I want to make (I want the car paid off by next year), but I do have to work full time to make it work.

 

19 years old (just started school)......$ comes from three places: work, savings, racing. Mike

 

um, I just turned 25, do I still count? I own a business doing carts and kiosks in the malls. Currently I have 6 locations with 2 more on the way. My payment was $550 a month at 9.5% but I just got refinanced at 6% and dropped my payment to $450 (thank God) My ins. just dropped quite a bit.

Turned 27 this year. But prior to that I was a pharmaceutical representative when I graduated from college. And then I went into doing estate and financial planning. But i'm not 25 anymore. But it is possible to make incredible money, working, before you turn 25. I have a friend who details cars. He is 22 and makes incredible CASH money. go figure. by the way he has s2k also

 

I work as a computer admin at a Ford production plant! (they lOVE my car!!)

 

I'm 24, will be 25 in October.

I am Chief Information Technology Officer of a pharmaceutical data processing company in Connecticut.

I make over $100,000 a year not including bonus, stock options, 401k and other perks.

Payment on the TT is $500 a month. I will own it end of this year.

Payment on the S2000 is $300 a month.

Payment on the Jeep is $0

Insurance for all three is about $5000 a year. Praying for a discount when I turn 25!

I don't see how anyone without a full time job can afford an S2000(and insurance) without either saving for a large down payment, or having some kind of parental help or having another expensive car to trade in for the S2000(in a way parental help). I think you would be the MAN in college if you had an S2000, but at the same time I would worry too much about someone being jealous and keying it or worse.

Good luck!

 

I'm 23, picking up my S next week. Been working since I was 17th, bought a Prelude now upgrading it I'm a BSc specialist in Software Engineer graduating this September. Can't wait to get my life back
