My best advice about "wants" is never rush to buy anything. Think good and hard about it. Is it worth the money you will pay? Is it something that you will use for years or will it get trashed in 6 months?
Especially on cars, spend alot of time figuring out what you really like. Find a car that is really you (and really your budget!!). Once you buy that car think of it like a marriage. Fall in love with your car. Have it, hold it and forsake it for no other. In 6 years, I have seen no car that comes anywhere near comparing to my little yellow Frontier. I love it, I love it, I love it!!
Yes it is only a truck and in 40 years it will be in a scrap yard, but it is mine. I am amazed by people who buy a car, then spend the next year complaining about it only to buy another and do the same again.
As for me? A freshman in college, I could have had a new truck on day one. Instead I put it off for a year and ahalf until I found exactly what I wanted. And if you didn't catch the hint above, I ain't looked back once.
