That way you can have plenty of fun and save the rest of the money for college or whatever. Because when you start off already up in M3 range its hard get any satisfaction unless your next car is even faster still.

My opinion is start off in the slower range and work your way up in order to get both the experience and appreciation for power/fun. It's just not very sensible in any aspect. You get much more satisfaction and respect for something that you slowly build up to, but anyways, i'll get off my soapbox now.
A little late on the advice but, well said nonetheless.

I don't know, maybe I am just getting cranky in my dottage (37, here). That being said, <putsonrainbootsandwhitietighties> "You kids get OFF my damn lawn!" </putsonrainbootsandwhitietighties>
