but I was thinking about putting $2500 of my $8k into a Traditional IRA and investing the rest in stocks. Ideally I'd like to use a chunk of the funds for a down payment on a car in the next 2 years.
So, you would open an IRA only to withdraw 2 years later? And for a car of all things. I would just leave it alone.

Sorry I should have been more specific. I would put the $2500 in an IRA and leave it alone. The other $5500 is what I'd like to invest to put towards a down payment on a car.
ETA: I also won my history class stock market project in high school, so I'm basically a wizard, right?
