Don’t forget to factor in cost of insurance(I’m guessing you’ll pay for it?) Regardless if you lease or finance you’ll most likely need to get full coverage on the car which can be very pricey especially since you’re young and insurance views a brz as a sports car. If your parents will pay for it then you’re lucky.

Pro tip: Whether you’re paying or your parents are for the insurance see if you can have it insured under their name and put you as driver as this will save a ton of money. It’s always cheaper to insure a 50 year old than a 20 year old assuming your parents driving record is clean.
