For those who say it's just a car...why didn't you buy a Camry? Obviously at the end of the day it is after all a car, but I think the majority of people here bought their cars because they have a passion for driving in some form or another. There's plenty of appliances with far more amenities and better mpg, etc for lower price.

Serious, if that had happen to me? I would have told the guy " I think I ran over something can you get off and check my front tire?" an as soon as he get in front to check? RUN his A$$ over!! He won't do that again.

I wouldn't spend $30-$40k on " just a car " otherwise I would be looking for a used beater.. If you are spending that much, it should be something you keep in pristine condition and take care of, I plan to baby my Z like no other lol..In a way, this will be like a dream car for me..always wanted a Porsche..but my salary doesnt go that far and this is really the next best thing at more than half the cost

It's not a traditional investment per se, in that you're hoping to make a financial gain from purchasing it, however it is highly unlikely that anyone will spend their $30-40k with little regard to it's condition

Most of the computers we are using cost under $2k, which is WAY less than our cars, but we don't go dumping coffee on it, or putting our dirty shoes on it.
America is awesome, we keep our $30k cars in the driveway so our junk can sit in the garage. |
