So now that I've decided to buy a car, I found a good dealership and narrowed it down to two that I like and are in my price range, AND NOW I CAN'T DECIDE.
Car 1: 2002 Lexus ES 300, black, $5,981
Pros:
- Higher MPG than the other car
- Heated seats
- Keyless entry
- Sunroof
- Less expensive
Cons:
- 146,887 miles
- Ugly/Boring
- Listed on the website as "coming soon", which means I might not be able to get it before I leave
Car 2: 1989 Chevrolet Camaro, red, $6,433

Pros:
- SO COOL LOOKING
- 29,077 miles on it
- Has only been driven in fair conditions by a car lover, so no chance of it being run into the ground
- Bucket seats in the back
- Lower insurance than the Lexus (????)
- Available immediately
Cons:
- Worse MPG (15/20 vs. 20/25 for the Lexus)
- Paint job on the hood is a little rough
- 2 doors
- More expensive
- I'm not sure if I'll really like driving something so low
I don't know what I want to do. :( Everyone I talk to says I should get the Lexus, and I know that's the responsible choice, and I don't NEED to buy it before winter break, but the Camaro is sooooo cool and I can get it now!! Well, after I change my license to Indiana, but same difference since I plan to do that Tuesday. I don't want to be a responsible adult. I want to be a 21 year old buying her first car.
