agreed with lil bastard. Im finishing up my last year of school at the moment as well, and I do make a little bit of money on my own but its not much (6-8k a year). I purchased the car with money that I made, but if I didn't have my parents to help out with repairs the car would be sitting in the garage right now instead of being at school with me.

As for older porsche, its my experience that they need more attention than the newer ones and the parts are also expensive. But who wouldn't want to have an older Porsche (I convinced my brother to buy an '87 911 and he hasn't regretted it at all even with the high maintenance costs).

I say wait until your done with school, save up as much $ as possible and get the best thing you can once you have a solid job.
