You can get a decent used car for $4000-$5000, but insurance might cost you up to $200/month, depending on your driving experience. I'm not sure how the motor vehicle department looks at driving experience from abroad. Gas prices are unfriendly ($3.50/gallon in the U.S.), but they are much worse in Europe.

I contemplated buying one, but it's probably an unnecessary expense. If you live close to campus or in a big city with a good public transportation system, there is really no reason to own a car.
