kid,

I'm not doubting what the dealer told you, but the list on a 250 is 30K-ish. Paying 40K+ for a car that lists at 30K-ish is a really bad deal unless you get the gold plated option.

TWC,

You will never have the opportunity again to be 19yo, in school w/ lots of hot college chicks, and have a car like this that everyone will think is the hottest thing around. Sure, you can be one more college dude w/ a 20k car, then in 5 years be one more working guy w/ a 40k car, then 5 years later be married w/ a minivan.

Or you can be the badass dude w/ the 40k car right now. You'll never have a chance to be this 19yo guy again. So go buy the car. Or stretch a little and buy something a little nicer.

Or listen to Mr. Conservative Married Guy Ed Miller.

Dude, he lives in Waco. A Lexus ain't gonna make him cool. College chicks are gonna look at him like, "A car? Is he gay? Why doesn't he drive pickup?"

For like $500 he can pick up a fully pimped out Nitro Monster Truck. It's a Nitro, man... Texan women can't resist the Nitro.
