My Goal for the Next Year

I have decided to set a goal of saving approximately $5,000 by this time next year that I will then combine with a loan from my parents (probably around $2,000) to buy another car as a newer, more reliable daily driver. This will allow me to use the MR2 as a fun weekend/track car and not have to worry about having a ride to work/school. What I really want is a 2000+ Subaru Impreza 2.5RS. Hopefully I can be disciplined enough to faithfully put this money away.

Either of these two body styles is good with me, but I love the look of the older one below:
