But MUCH MUCH better is a 10 year old used car. You are in college, get a beater. I'd personally go with a very used wagon. You can always throw a few blankets in the back and go somewhere to have some fun with a chick. Ask me how I know...

Oh, BTW, your mother isn't very knowledgeable about cars. The LAST thing that a college student needs is a brand new car to worry about. You older car breaks down? No biggie, someone will always be around to give you a ride. A college campus is just about the most 'walk friendly' and 'anti-car' environment there is. A new car on a campus is a silly, silly thing.
