Buy a used Toyota Camry, enjoy the 32+ MPG, finish school, pay all bills, evaluate life.
Do things in this order, while not pissing away the money you manage to save while going to school, and you just might enjoy life and have all debts paid when you enter the professional workforce.
No its not fun, its responsible. Fun comes later.
The first 1/3 of your life you learn how to make money
The second 1/3 of your life you work to make money
The last 1/3 of your life you spend the money you made
Where is your mom? Why isn't she slapping you around while you piss away all the money you have so far with the failed hobbies? How many YEARS have the older, experienced people on this board been telling you to be responsible with your (and your parents) money?
Forget the Mustang, WRX and any car over $10k right now. Get reliable and gas-saving for the next 4 years.
After you land a career job and have a steady income without major expenses like school loans, then you can indulge in a treat like a Camaro or Mustang.
Unless you're rich, you should learn from those who have been in your situation and lived it already. You have an opportunity to come out ahead.
