Financing
If I were to guess how much money I would put down at once would be around $1,000-$2,500, most likely $1,500. I am not sure if this is a reasonable price but that's how much I would put down.
$25,475 - $1,500= $23,975 (loan)
$23,975/ 60= $399.59 per month
If I had a job I would say there would be a lot of things I would have to restrain myself from if I would want to afford this car, the gas, insurance, maintenance, etc. but at the current state I am in, I don't think that will be able to. It would be much easier to pay for if two people were to be working together to pay off the car and as a high school student looking to get in a college, the chances aren't very high of finding a partner in that period. Sadly, I would not be able to afford the car by myself, maybe if I had saved up money years ago I would be able to purchase it but as of right now I don't think its possible by myself.
