If this was actually experimental, I would say you’re right, but I don’t find it so original to be honest.

I listened to both waves of prog actually, though I prefer the latter. When described, a clear distinction was made between the first wave (psychedelic rock) and the second one. I hear no psychedelic nor prog here. You do you.

It’s not about being right, it’s about being clear. I’m a big fan of prog music and this isn’t it.

Progressive is a very specific genre though. This is not really progressive, it’s alternative, basically.

How is that prog though?

Depending on the model, the cheapest ones come at about 10k, from around 2004-2008. You would be getting a quite old car for the price of a new Smart, which you would have to pay an insane amount of insurance on, and still have a subpar experience. Also consider a car needs maintenance, which might be the biggest hitter in this case. There’s still the matter of earning that kind of money. I’m not sure what your expectations are, but forget about earning $24/hr if you’re not either really lucky or already rich to start with. Why do you think so many adults still live with minimum wage jobs?

You’re still out what, 30-35k? Reality mate.

Mate you should get a small dose of reality here. You can’t seriously consider buying a 350z with a starting job.
