I'm also 17 and have my license. Just because you have 22k to spend, doesn't mean you should go out and buy a brand new car. If you have a car, you'll be cool, period. Don't go out and buy a new car for many reasons such as: you just got your license and you aren't that experienced. Accidents always happen, and if anything did happen that would cost a lot to fix. Newer cars are very expensive to fix, and you also need to think about gas. Think about cars that are super on gas. Start off with a used car, or not such an expensive car like a new Honda Accord or BMW. In the end, you'll be happy just to have a car. Hope this helped!
