thank you for sharing your opinion though lmao... dear diary...

Oh, and make sure you get spinning rims for your new car. That'll show your hood friends how successful you've become.

>>16235185
>almost a 30 year old boomer
>finally gets a halfway decent job
>first thought is to immediately buy a luxury car
Some people are just destined to never fucking make it

>>16235185
Or... or you could not be retarded and get a cheaper non luxury brand car instead of going into debt to impress literal losers you dont associate with and use that money that would otherwise be going to a bank on an appreciating asset rather than a depreciating one.

>>16235207
Yeah it isn't an argument. It's a fact. You fucking retard.

>>16235204
I plan on financing only 32k which, at 72 months, equates to ~$500 a month which is less than 20% of my monthly take- home

>>16235207
Best advice is to save your money and buy something more economical. Invest your left over money and wait until you have saved a decent amount before wasting it on a vehicle like stated. You dont want to wage for your vehicle.

>>16235185

>>16235229

500 a month plus gas and maintenance and tolls insurance lololol car cucks are the most delusional.

>>16235215
The luxury cars in the OP hold their value better than most cars

that M4 will never be "worth" less than 25k with mileage under 100k

>>16235229

> $500 a month on an unreliable German shit box.

>>16235185
>owning german cars on a 45k salary
For not associating with your "burnt out friends" you sure are trying hard to impress them.

>>16235229
Which by the end of your financing period will equate to nearly a years salary. Anyone who spends a years salary on a car is financially illiterate and destined to stay poor forever. The people you see driving those cars are almost always lumped into two groups. Group one: makes a lot of money and can actually afford a car befitting their economic status. Group two: low/middle class retards who go into debt up to their eyeballs and live in shithole apartments in order to larp as someone with high economic status, which they will never achieve due to poor money habits.

Guess which group you belong to.

>>16235254
Listen fucktard, maintenance is more expensive on luxury cars, insurance is more expensive, and you'll probably also be asked to use premium gas. Kys

>>16235258
i also thoroughly enjoy fast cars. but yes, i do want others under the impression I've "made it"

Get yourself a Subaru WRX,Awesome resale value.. sold my 06 with 144,000 miles for $9000. I bought it for $26,000 over 13 years ago..

>>16235185
You don't make enough money for any of those cars. Even if you did, you shouldn't buy one.

>>16235266
Clearly you've made up your mind. You really should be going to the nearest used car dealership. They will be happy to sell you a car you cant afford.

>>16235185
hahahahahahhhahaha this is the best thread I've seen on /biz/ in a while

it's bait but there are legitimately people that spend like this. I live in a State with tons of Mexicans and military guys, and this is literally how they spend. They get a paycheck and immediately go buy a Mustang / Charger / disgusting nu-Muscle Car and spend years paying it off before they get a DUI and get it repo'd. Pure insanity.

>>16235261
you seem super butthurt

look at your emotional status at the simple THOUGHT of someone being able to own a nice car. literally pause for a moment and reflect

now imagine being me... casting that effect on every 20- something that i pull up next to or visits my Instagram...

fucking awesome

>>16235285
Shh.. just play along for the nufags..

>>16235185
>45k per year
i made that at 23 years old. you do not make enough to own a nice car. remember it should not cost more than 10 percent of your net worth.

>>16235185
I make $150k+ a year and I drive a car that I paid $14k cash for. You're never gonna make it.

>>16235283
>17% of my take home

pftthahaha ok pal

>>16235266
actually i've changed my mind just buy a brand new BMW M3. you can afford it for sure.

>>16235296
whoa cool

youre also literally getting upset by what someone, seemingly lightyears inferior to you, does with a small portion of his paycheck

thats fuckin sad lmao

>>16235308
>spend 80% of your take home on a car
>buy the 4 for version

>>16235266
since when 45k / year is making it?

>>16235272
thanks for the advice. while WRXs are awesome, i want a "status" car

>>16235285
Yes lower and middle class (especially the various shitskins) will do whatever they can to give the appearance of a higher economic class. The niggers and spics buy jewels, jordan's and rims with their welfare, the reservation Indians buy new trucks every couple years with their fedbux and everyone buys overpriced phones and iPads that have features they never use. The irony is that many make enough money to achieve a higher standard of living if they spent 10 years or so living within their means and making smart decisions with with the money they saved.

BMW 428. It's like 350 a month

im making $70k and i don't want to buy a car over $30K

>>16235321
i can afford a decent place to live (midwest) and have a nice car

let me guess

"nuh uh OP you're wrong because my version of making it is different than yours!"

sad... not your attitude, but the fact there's alot of your type ITT who are borderline retarded

>>16235352
whoa cool, nice diary entry, thanks for sharing!

>>16235185
Hey bro I'm in similar situation, most these assholes talking shit are jobless retards. I really want a 2016+ mustang GT 5.0 if you can get the gt350 that'd be fun

>>16235320
you are right he should get an m6 instead

>>16235310
I'm not upset.
Real advice. You're better off buying a used BMW 3-series or Mercedes C-Class for under $20k. The cars you mentioned earlier might only impress dudes. Girls won't know the difference between entry level and performance cars when they see the luxury badge.

>>16235288
Kek I know this is bait, but on the off chance that it's not I can tell you that I couldn't give two shits on what you spend your meager wage on. Have fun being in debt your entire life.

>>16235347
I've thought about getting a 435i instead and having a cheaper payment but i think i would regret it... while that is a nice car, it's not one that people look at and go "damn thats nice"

>>16235185
You can barely afford a used Focus let alone a European luxury car. You are objectively retarded.

>>16235385
>i know this is bait but let me give a serious response
dude you might as well wear a giant "I'm a total retard, stay clear" sign on your head

>>16235384
Nah. Entry level should be avoided at all cost. Always go at LEAST one level up, or you look extremely tryhard basic. If you can only get 3 series or c class, might as well go the "unique" route with a higher level wrx or mustang or some shit.

>>16235185
Anon, I’m not gonna rip you but this is dumb. You buy a cheap car now, invest the extra money, and come out way ahead in five years. Then you buy the car.

You’re gonna have about $800 per month to play around with. These numbers are pretty low, if I use actual average gas costs, more realistic car insurance, and since you’re a retard who will most likely eat out every day and go to expensive restaurants for his instagram pics to impress people he doesn’t associate with, you are more likely to have only $400 after the basic monthly expenses, not even including health insurance and your meme subscriptions to loot crate box deliveries.

OP.

Why don't you buy a car you can afford with cash outright when you have enough savings in the bank to cover a few years running costs... Just in the event your high paying 20k + 25kOTE pa job isn't all it's cracked up to be.

I'm thinking bus pass... then civic/corolla in 6 months time...

Have you considered a bicycle. I make more than you OP and I ride a bicycle. It cost £90 used... But after all the maintenance, tools, clothing, tyres and spare parts I'm close to £600 in the hole, but that's all in apart from chains and cassettes for the next 5 years.

If I need to travel further than 30-60 minutes bus ride to a job... I charge the client the cost of travel + hotels + food + bonus for not being comfy AF at home... or I don't work.

My sister had a WRX and that hing could go lots of places, lovely vehicle but fuel was just insane. Cost her no joke £15/20 a day to get to work (was a 40 min drive or so but still!)

Around 11L/100km but I suspect I have a leaky injector of vacuum pump.

Can't get much better than 8-9. Yeah, fuel consumption is a lot.

Mazda 6 Wagon Takumi if you want a more luxurious car.

Don't buy German cars. They're reliable, but if you want a decent interior and other specs you'll pay so much fucking money it's insane. Japanese brands offer the same quality and reliability. But they're more bang for your buck.

>>16237474
this is true, they are engineered to break and the parts cost a fucking bomb. plus yes, alot of the interiors are abit shitty on some german cars, for what you pay. Friend had an AMG c220 and it was so cheap and creaking plactic inside it really didnt warrant the price tag, not one bit..

Also, fuck range rovers, chavvy shit.

I want status but I don't want to spend a lot of money

There is no such thing as a status car if you have to drive it to work

As soon as you turn the key it becomes a wagie car

If you want a status car, save your money and use it to start businesses until you start a business that works and makes you a millionaire. Then you can have any car you want and any car you drive is a status car.

A used Honda is a status car if you actually have status

And you'll be stuck in stop and go traffic every day headed to your job to pay for your 400 HP expense for the next 6 years. After you spent 60k on it with interest (more for various maintenance and repairs), you'll now have a worthless vehicle that has been beaten to shit from use.

A 6 year loan for a car is a horrible idea. Spending 40k on a car with an income barely above that is terrible. I make 100k in the Midwest (low cost of living), and I wouldn't even consider spending 20k on a car.

The only people that can afford to be "car guys" and not be in debt up to their ass are either the super wealthy or mechanics that slowly fix up wrecked vehicles for themselves.

You may have fun with it initially, but it's going to severely limit the decisions you can make with your life by restricting your expenses. It's not worth it to show off. Other people don't care that much about what's going on in your life. You're only hurting yourself.

Anything else is dumb.

>>16235229
Honest advice? Figure out whatever it is you want and buy a really nice example that's a few years old used. Cars depreciate like stones, get a basically new car that's 3-4 years old for half the money.
Buying new ever is a joke.
You can get a 2015 s5 with 25k miles for a little over 30 grand, or you can spend more getting an inferior package new. Up to you.

Best status car is not owning a status car like a nigger.
The white man spends his fortune on enriching his family, community and race.

Based as fuck.

tesla model 3

HAHAHAH

With a 45k salary you can afford a 5-7k car you fucking retard. You WILL stay poor buying shit like a nigger.

>>16235185
>He thinks buying a luxury car means he “made it”
>Still hasn’t figured out that the only people who buy luxury cars are middle class niggers trying to look wealthy
The golden rule once you made it is that you show others how wealthy you are. Rich people know this, and average people will know you’re full of shit once they see the way you carry yourself.

>>16240051
*never show others how wealthy you are.

If your good looking and have a nice social circle a Status Car is the best investment. You will get 10/10 pussy for free.

Only depressed incels want to be millionaires because they are ugly and they have no social life.

>>16235185
Get a 2015 Q40 and drive it for the next 10 years.

Mercedes CLA Amg or e63 AMG

>status car

Anyone who shops for "status cars" is poor or nigger-rich.

>>16235229
>7 years
>car will break down and be unusable before that
>still have to keep paying for a piece of dead weight
Hahahahahahahaha

>>16235229

>paying for a depreciating asset for 6 years

>>16235185
a car should be 10% of your yearly salary, so you should buy a car that cost $4.5K

$500 per month you could be investing that can make you money and make your annual income better. Pls don't be retarded and fall for the status meme.

I fell for this meme when I was making 70K and bought a 30K audi A4. I even put $15K down. I wish I would have just bought a $15K car and invested the rest.

OP I have had cars that would absolutely mog any of the vehicles you listed, and i can tell you that this is the dumbest shit in the world you could do. The vehicles I bought held their value because they were exotic, and I still decided to sell them because it is literally the worst thing to spend such a large portion of your income on. And my income was 4x yours. You assume anyone is going to give a shit that you are driving a vehicle that the rich kids in high school get as their starter car. It won't make you feel like you made it, it wont impress anyone with an iq higher than 100, it won't get you pussy.

bro you are 29 and you still haven't learned the absolute basics. you will honestly never make it if you think this way.

>>16235365
There is no way you won't regret this purchase.

Paid 22k for a truck and i make 70 a year... i still feel stupid.

Get a used 370z for like 10-15k
They are not common, fun and won't make you go bankrupt with maintenance

How long will it take for him to save up for a downpayment on a house/flat. I think seven years, and another 30 years to pay off the mortgage. This economy is truly fucked.

>>16235266
No-one gets the impression someone has made it fron flashy purchases like cars and watches. Maybe at the bottom tier but everyone else knows what's up.

A bigger, nice house is the better 'making it' signal or to a lesser extent holidays vut that's a waste.

>>16240193
Lmao if you're good looking you don't need a car or even friends to get laid

I don't understand why some of you think treating yourselves to something nice is bad. You work hard why not enjoy it a little. What are you waiting for ? Till your in your 50-60s to enjoy your money. By that time you wouldn't be able to wipe your butt or get it up let alone any young girls wanting to hook up with you . Why not live a little now . I think its because most of you here are social retards without any salvation so therefore you do t want anyone to have fun either. Misery enjoys company i guess is true. Im in my late 30's and did i have lots of fun in my teens and twenties. I had 2 3 somes I've fucked over 40 girls lots of 7 a couple of 9s. Party, pussy, drinking , cars my own place at 21. jail, lots of great and not so great experiences but if i was to die today i could honestly say i lived a goo life. Plus I'm pretty happy where im at now ofcourse things could be better but they are good for now.

Get out the basement and live go to a bar a sit there alone if you have to and drink a couple of beers who knows you might enjoy it. Stop being so bitter annon.

Nice car amigo

>>16235185
buy a good G37 Coupe for like 10k and call it a day. That's more within your price range my friend. and you won't have to worry about financing.

>>16240879
whew lad. may god help you if this isn't bait.

>>16240848

People that need a car to get laid are the same betas that rely on Tinder to get laid

>>16240595
if you know how to work on cars: buy 20+ years old
if you don't know, buy new

There are no charging stations near where I live, Tesla fit and finish is garbage, the performance at higher speeds is lackluster due to direct drive/lolnogearbox, and they're fucking heavy as hell. A performance oriented ICE car of a similar size will corner better than a Tesla simply due to the fact that batteries weigh a fuck ton. Also, I don't care for orwellian technology in my car. Over the air shit brings a great array of new vulnerabilities

>>16235185
best status you can buy is a jumper with the current date on

cheaper than cars + more glances

Buy a used toyota 4runner or a older camery. Watch scotty kilmer. Get something reliable so you dont have to pay (((mechanics)))

Maybe things are different in Southern Yurope, but if you went to pick up a girl with a 90s Samurai here in the US she'd laugh in your face.
