You could take that $8000 and turn it into hundreds of thousands with simple and safe investments. You could start a Roth IRA and grow that money tax free. You might even qualify for a 403b or 457b. Do some research and find ways to save your money first. Wait and buy a 1-year old 2010 Camaro. You will be far better off in the end for it.
Then tell me why your not preaching this to everybody on this forum?

Why does anyone buy a new car?

I think it is worth it to have a car that has not been molested by someone else.
