We all remember the first car we bought with our own money. Some were fortunate enough to have the money to buy a nice car that will last them a while, others (like me) remember buying a $900 trash box that got us to and from school.
Keith Urban admitted that he blew his first royalty check on a used car that he had always wanted.
“I really wanted an Impala SS, mid-’90s-94, somewhere around there. I got my first royalty check for $20,000 and this car I wanted was $23,000. I fly to North Carolina to get this car, hoping I can get this guy to come down to 20 grand because I don’t have 23. I get there and I jump in the car, and there I am driving in the car with this guy and it’s perfect. It took some negotiation, but I was able to get him down to 20k.”
I’m sure Keith has a garage full of cars at this point in his career, but it makes you wonder if he still has that old Impala doesn’t it?
