Klaus is spot on, soak 3K into it, save the rest.
Spend some cash get your car tuned up, heck even have it detailed (if needed) and maybe a treat for yourself such as satellite radio, GPS, etc.
14K could go a long ways when you need it to rather then buying a depreciating item such as a car. (I say depreciating with utmost sincerity, even for our cherished Volvos...)
God knows what will be in store this summer with regards to fuel prices, and its a heck of a lot easier paying $5.00 a gallon for gas into a car that you flat out own...especially if you have "ahem" 11k in the bank to offset any other things life throws at you.
