A Personalized Plan By: Patrick Collins
Table of Contents • Intro • Car Choice • Payments • Financing • Maintenance
Introduction As a student and an athlete I do not have time to work after school. However, during the summer I work full time. With the money I have saved up from this I plan on buying a used car with my parents help. It has to be something safe but sporty and obviously can not be lame.
Car Choice: BMW 325i • The car I chose for purchase is the BMW 325i. This car is a reliable German made sedan with under 120000 miles. It is an automatic with decent gas mileage and 2wd. This car is fast, safe, and looks decent. In short it is the perfect first car.
Payments • Cars cause a person to spend lots of money. A driver has to pay for many things such as gas, maintenance, insurance, and financing. In order to pay for these things I will have to save money from my job and work out a deal with my parents. For example, if I pay for gas then they will pay for insurance. A way that I could get them on board with this would be to offer them my free time to run chores and drive siblings around.
Financing the Car • To purchase this car, I will be spending my own money and my parents have decided to meet me half way. The car is selling for $7,500 dollars. If I meet them half way then I will be spending under 4k. This amount of money is reasonable for a high school student and their help keep me from having a financial contract such as a loan.
Maintenance • Because this car is reasonably new, the cost of parts should not be overly expensive, however it is a foreign made vehicle which will up the price. However, BMWs have been known for their reliability and this will help to keep from making expensive purchases. This car comes with many installed features which may need to be repaired at some point.
