Grow up and take off the blinders.
Thanks Berettafan. P-girl....this is the www. When you put something out in cyberspace, you're likely to get responses that don't match your personal opinion. One would assume you knew that.

If it weren't your grandma's money, I'd probably be a bit more open minded about considering the purchase. Trust me, your grandma won't last forever. She is generous enough to give you a gift that SHOULD be handled with the utmost respect...with an eye to the sentimental value it will represent for the rest of your life.....this isn't it.

You're young, still in college, not making a living, and have (overly) generous parents (and grandparents). You're considering the purchase of a high risk vehicle that will undoubtedly require significant resources to be what you are dreaming of...and even then, it's still a risk.

Do it when YOU can afford the time and financial investment necessary to do it right. You have more important things to do right now. In my humble opinion, of course.

If this bit of honest response to your inquiry causes you to take your ball and go home, so be it. You'll always be welcomed back here with some of the best experience and advice anywhere in the world. Or you can stay here, be a big girl and consider all comments...whether you like them or not. Then make your own choice.

Heck, I feel like I'm talking to my own daughter...except she's 10.
