I need help with buying a car?

Question

im 17 im trying to buy a car, i know i need a license for it but the car my mom owns is to big for me to drive with a permit, and she knows this so i told her that if i find a car, id give her the money so she can purchase it and all and id pay for the title and stuff to be transfered, but she still refuses to help me, i have no idea what to look for, or even how to do it i try to get her to help but in the end we just argue and i end up leaving....

so basically my question is what am i supposed to look for in a car when trying to purchase one ? .

Answer 1

Unfortunately you cant have the title of the car unless your 18, so you need her to put the car under her name. And if you buy the car from someone ask them to label the car as a gift this is an easy way to get around having to pay fee's on the buy.Hope this helps

Answer 2

must be a legal adult in your state to buy a car.

most places this means 18.

you can find these cars for less than $4,000

98 Acura CL

98 Ford Mustang V6

98 Honda Accord or Civic

98 Nissan Frontier or Pathfinder

98 Subaru Impreza or Legacy

98-00 Toyota Corolla or Echo 00

Answer 3

I think - you should also compare insurance quotes for these cars before buying one, for example here: http://autoinsurance.noneto.com

First time drivers usually have much higher rates than others. And it depends from car.
