Funny, I seem to have been in a lot of the above situations. When I bought the Supra, I was pretty much taken care of. I had a meal plan, no bills,no rent etc. etc. and it was still a royal PITA to get a loan b/c they automatically factor in rent and such. So, I got a job and pretty much everything I made went to car payments.
Fast forward a year, I'm working more and making more, but I refinance for more than original loan and buy the red supra. Dump money into that and lose a ton. Parents had to bail me out on that.
Fast forward to now. I paid for the Talon buy refinancing again. I hate it and it is a huge step up in power. Personally I think it is too fast and it doesn't do what I bought it for. I've already found that I can/will buy another car and have it totally track prepped for less than that initial purchase.
I've learned that buying cheap cars and living easily is a lot better than scraping buy so I could have a nice car. Hence, the fleet of piles sitting in my parking lot
