Buy a car or a new phone?

You'll probably be put under your parents insurance, I'm assuming they probably have state farm. The better question is how much money do you have saved up? My car buying experience was essentially to put 3 grand down on a new car, pay about 300 bucks a month, and get about 30 bucks worth of gas every 3 weeks. I haven't had many other expenses, however if you're going into a used car environment, there's a lot of things you have to check for.
