PhillyKev 0 #1 November 13, 2002 I had finally convinced myself that I didn't need to buy one. Then I read the test reports and review on Auto Weekly. How do I justify $30k for a car that I'll put 8k miles a year on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflir29 0 #2 November 13, 2002 QuoteHow do I justify $30k for a car that I'll put 8k miles a year on? You can't. I'm not really sure just how much I would have to make a year to spend $30K on a car. That's pretty much money that is PISSED out the window. I just have better things to spend my money on. Buy a house, open a 401K, open a mutual fund......something that will make you some money instead of lose it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skybytch 273 #8 November 13, 2002 That is such a sweet car... If you can afford it, why do you need to justify it? Get it! Never know, might get ya laid... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #9 November 13, 2002 If you need to justify it, then you might want to wait before you get one. Myself, I'm grappling with 2 seats versus 4...good thing the G35 coupe is coming out...So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

TequilaGirl 0 #12 November 13, 2002 I got a slightly used 2000 328i - silver with grey leather interior - it is decked out with all the options.......and I got a killer deal on it as well..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillyKev 0 #13 November 13, 2002 QuoteIf you need to justify it, then you might want to wait before you get one. I don't need to justify the money except in relation to the fact that I live in the city, walk everywhere, and the only time I really drive anymore is a 20 minute ride to the dz.

txojumps 0 #16 November 13, 2002 It's a first year model.......already a classic before it leaves the dealer.......buy it, use it a little and keep it spotless. No matter what don't sell it for at least 20 years, keep it in the garage with an old chute draped over it......probably triple your investment. *************************************** Awright, guys, you don't have one, so don't act like one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillyKev 0 #20 November 13, 2002 Nice car. My boss has a BMW Z8. Now that thing makes me drool. But I definitely can't justify the $130,000 for that car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
