I would say get a decent/cheap apartment with roommates and try to get one central enough that you can move around mostly on foot, bicycle, or public transportation so you can avoid the car cost. If you feel you must get a car aim for cheap but reliable. Many students take on loans with the thought that they can easily pay them off once they graduate, but then are more tied down than they'd like to be when they get out.
