260-270 new and like 200 for a used 991 with medium hours

What corners. They are going to just tilt the road like a roller coaster. That way they can use centrifugal force to keep the champagne in the glass.

“...top speed of 159 MPG...”

To be honest, neither will I again lol. :-P

I would almost be willing to pay $4,200 for air jacks in my $27,000 BRZ, lol.

You’re lucky to be alive.

They sometimes do “goodwill” things like that but usually only when there is the potential of a lot of bad will. And even then, it is usually more of a “help out those who complain the loudest.”

I think you completely missed interperted the article. It is about a Cash buyer, aka someone that has the money to purchase the car already in the bank. This money is different from the 6M cash reserves.

You’re not alone— it likely wouldn’t even be that terrible to drive since he put the two wheels on the correct end. Not sure what the market is for trikes- but anything you find is going to have a lot of fab work. I’ll bet people get $20K for those one-wheel-in-front Harley trikes, so $4K for this isn’t completely…

AHHHH I hate when I do that. I replied to the wrong person. Sorry!

Debt <> having a net positive asset balance sheet but having a loan anyway.

Aside from investing the money you didn't put on the item for a higher return, or building a credit history in the event you have to go into debt in the future or want to do basic things like getting phone service or utilities without putting down a deposit. Or, in my case, I use credit cards for everything. Because I…

This oversimplifies the argument. A car will depreciate in value no matter how you pay for it so you have to go back to considerations of your costs of capital. If you draw $30,000 out of an investment account that’s earning 10% per annum over the long term (a reasonable assumption) you lose those earnings forever.…

You have no idea what you are talking about. I don’t know what you went to school for, but it wasn’t finance related. Almost every successful business carries debt even though they could pay cash. Carrying debt with the means to pay it off is not the same as carrying debt and going paycheck to paycheck. If someone is…

He doesn’t understand how money, interest and investing work.

If I can loan money for 0% interest and save my cash to make 4%+ on investments there is absolutely a good reason to go into debt. In theory you should borrow money anytime that you can make more in interest than what you are paying. But once it swings the other way, then debt is not the answer.

There is no appeasing the “always pay cash” truthers. Let them live their lives while myself and others bask in 0-1% loans, which is basically free money.

Sure there is - Incentive financing that is free or close to free, or the scenario described in the article where you take the financing for a very short term to get a discount then pay off the loan before it is due.
Ex. We bought a bed. They have promotional 0% financing for 12 months. We took it, and payed the…

No, Tom’s right on this one. If you have the cash to pay for the vehicle up front, come in, take the special ‘deal’ with discounts or markdowns or whatever, and walk out the door with the loan, even if it’s a bit above market rates. Then next month, do a full payoff. As long as there are no pre-payment penalties, you…

If you have a low interest rate on the loan and can invest the cash in something that has a higher return, then yes it would make sense.
