Why the hell do yall like just get finished with the debt then jump into another? I know if I was just anota to pay off a car I'd just be like sweet n if I wanted something else then I'd sell the car and get the other ride.... I just don't get why people love debt....
^^^ i agree.. its stupid.. you pay for a 40k car.. after interest you have 43 in it and then 5 years later you trade it in for a value of 25. or even better its not paid for and you trade it in and own more than its worth now or its depreciated and you still owe and arm.. then roll that debt into another car compounding the debt.. now you are 50k into a 35k car.. and you have a $700 payment on a car that when you pay it off will be worth 1/3 less than you invested..
I understand the logic of buying new at dealer as you get all options you want but shit you pay out the ass and moment you drive off lot it is worth less...
PEOPLE remember these are depreciating assets. these are not vintage cars that are gaining value.. they are loosing..
yes i bought the wife's element at the dealer new. Yes the owner of the dealership is a close family friend.. but it was the last year they were making it and i saved 8k off sticker and paid cash.. plus we could not find a used one with AWD and all the options.. i have one of the last ones made with all the options in a rare color.. No it is not a collector car but come time to sell its a plus being last model year with all options.. thats it..
but finish paying of a 40k car to trade it in for 25-30k credit on another car and continue your payment... shit you are better to lease at that point atleast then you sign a contract to get screwed in the ass..
i always buy used atleast a year or so used and if at the dealer its the previous model while on a super deal.. or know the dealer.
In times like these if you are not swimming in the money it is the economy of HORD the cash away bc the shit can hit the fan at any moment..
you can argue the other side that Detroit will crumble if people are not buying new well that will never change.. let someone else pay the new premium and you reep the benefit a year later and save..

Yea I hear u man I pay cash on everything and don't owe anything. Like if u want something isn't it better to save up and get it then jump in the hole and get screwed over then if you can't pay a month get repoed and then ur screwed even more....
Yea buddy makes 6 figures buying and selling repo cars.. its a great business.. then he repoes for his own lot.. and the circle of life continues..

We used to repo back in the day and yea people don't pay and they get mad because they didn't pay and are getting repoed? Wtf its their fault lol
buddy has 2 armored dualies.. 2008 and 2010.. with the in bed hide a tow system.. 5% tint.. couple cameras.. he never gets out the truck.. i have heard some crazy stories.. the repo shows on tv are not fake that crazy shit happens all the time.. i mean you dont pay i take back whats mine.. i have the title.. as i technically own it. you still making payment.. so whats the big deal..
he has had to repaint cars before or send to auction out of town bc the crazies try and steel there car back from his lot lol ..

Don't blame you, had an Audi Convertable 2.8 (96 model) almost from new, had it 9yrs and drove it hard, in that time replace the hydrolic steering pump, thats it, was a great car. Now I want a weekend play thing, would like an RS4 Convertable, but i think the S4 great and for a lot less. Have been eye 09 M3's as well... When you get it, post some pics...

I know what you mean mate, have a little man myself, and he comes first, but an S4, RS4, M3 (even a decent 06) and oh hell yeah an M5 would make my weekend play thing list.
