If your worried about the cost of gas, this is not the car for you. I know the window sticker says 28mpg highway or something rediculous, but I have never got more than 21mpg using the cruise and with strictly highway miles.
You should also check your insurance before buying... seeing that your 19 and driving a 400hp car might not sit well with your insurance company haha.
You also have to factor in that oil changes cost about $30 or so, depending on what type of oil and filter you use.
Here is a breakdown of the cost of mine each month, and remember I only paid $24,000 for mine new:
$475 payment (I pay a little more each month)
$200-$250 for gas (my drive to work is quite a ways)
$80 full coverage insurance (crazy discounts haha)
=over $700 a month for this damn car, and mine is an '04. But hey it's fast and is fun to drive, and you only live once, right?

It looks like an overgrown Cavalier anyway IMO . Redgoat is 110% correct about the insurence They will rape you !
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.
I'm in the process of actually pulling this off lol I'm 98% there for selling my vert just needs a lil minor things before I put it up for sale and then i'll work on finishing up the silver Z before I put it up for sale but I'll hopefully be able to put a few grand down on a GTO and have one this summer which is my goal.
Well I wish you all the luck in the world in buying it. Just make sure you lube up good before you call your insurence agent cause he's gonna slam it into you and break it off.
Semper Fi SAINT. May you rest in peace.
