Come on guys, give this poor guy a break. Before he has a family if he really gets the job that pays 50k this is the time for him to get a bit of reward that he wanted. Who cares if it is not a super couch like a Crown Vic, or handle like an S2000, or has fuel economy like a Prius, or cheap like a used Saturn, just buy what you want that you can afford and pick up chicks with it.
If we are all going to drive only the most rational transportation all those SUVs, muscle cars, V8, RWD, etc would have been crushed by now, and everyone would be driving Civics and Accords (or their equivalents).
