Upsides are: cheaper to buy, cheaper to maintain, cheaper insurance, and if you crash it it's not a big loss.
Downside is you may not get as much pussy if you drive a POS...

Thanks for the quick response! I understand your views on gaining experience before I move on to such an expensive car. However, it's not as if i'm going into this completely inexperienced. I have been driving with my dad since I was 10 and have had no problems. In my opinion, its completely dependent on how mature the individual is. I'm not wanting one of the two cars in order to show off (i.e. drive recklessly or push car past its limits), I simply enjoy nice things.
