Porschegirl, you seem like a nice girl, but definitely spoiled. I get this from "I have transferred to a new college, and for the first time in awhile am actually trying to do well; I want to do well, to make my parents proud of me, and to feel proud of myself...to show responsibility and maturity which will make them pleaseed, and to bring home grades we all can be proud of.
Things are looking good so far, so here's the propsal: If they agree to letting my grandma buy the car, it will be my responsibility, and as long as I'm making good grades (preferrably no C's) and doing my homework, etc at school, the car stays. But if I bring home any bad grades (either a C or below a C), the car will be sold. I know, it's a lot more than just that statement when it comes to selling a car, but I honestly cannot think of a better incentive for me to be focused to get good grades than the idea that my beloved will be sold. (Not even money is as important to me as a bribe)..."

You shouldn't have to be bribed to get good grades. How about you do well in school, show some maturity and then discuss this with your parents? It is not like you don't have a decent vehicle to drive ('99 Cherokee)

The 911 will be that much sweeter when you have earned it. Show some restraint (particularly with this 911, sounds like it will cost you $20K) in the end. Drive your dad's 911 when you have the chance.
