While I agree it shouldn't be a major concern, it is a factor. If you've got two cars that are equal in your eyes, and one costs 3x as much as the other to maintain, that's something you need to think about before purchase.

Agreed. I was referring to after purchase. If you've decided that you can buy an $80-$100k GTR/911/etc, you shouldn't really fret about the operating/maintenance costs.
