I dont think it was a very smart move on his part to get that expensive of a car..but whatever..everyone at work thinks he is so cool. h:

that kid = stupid.

i wonder how he is going to pay for insurance, gas, etc.

i'll bet he had someone co-sign because you wont be able to afford a 30K car with 10/hr.

cool? nope. seriously in debt yep. he'll probably end up selling the car

50% depreciation in 1 year?

I'd take that bet.

now do you mean auto/dealer only auctions or public auctions?

I own one of the fastest deprecitating sports cars that was on the market. $40K bought, after 4 years value $28k.. what you don't know is that the value after the first year was also 28K. 12K in depreciation in one year.

if the 03 EVO depreciates 15K in one year I'll buy it with cash!

i bet there's going to be a lot of kids like this one. unfortunately, i'm sure they're going to wreak havoc on the roadways before they go bankrupt.

They didn't test them on Pike's Peak. They set up their own dirt course and had Rod Millen, who has raced on Pike's Peak, test the cars.
