How do you guys afford your camaro? - Page 25 - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

My parent's are paying half of my payment and I pay the rest while I work in retail until I go back to school. They felt that they owed me for not going away to the college of my choice when my dad had back surgery after I graduate high school. Do I regret not being able to go, yes. :( But they needed help and I was the only one there.

Yeah, no grand a month in rent not to mention no electricity and gas bills, grocery bills, etc. So yeah, it may be like buying any other mid-level new car to you, but for some of us buying a brand new car is a unattainable feat.

Looks like I won't need to afford one considering they decided not to finish the ABL.

AWESOME! Wish I had that kind of saving discipline when I was younger. Good job!

Honestly! Do you want a ride to see what I mean? If it was meant to have a front license plate, there would be an area for it. Hence, no front license plate officer.
