It’s too much for a 13 year old Fancy Honda with ~100k on the clock but damn, I have always found this generation of the TL to be one of the best looking cars made in the past 30+ years. It grabs my eye every time, even though there were a lot on the road. 

How many of these kinds of clowns do you think actually have military background? I’d guess less than 10%. 

The Corvette one blows me away. The one with the multiple weekend (at least) bags and a cooler proves you really could take this for a getaway. Amazing. 

Throughout the years, the Corvette has been a viable performance competitor to supercars but at a fraction of the price. Just because you equate it with a stereotype of mid-life crisis doesn’t make it overrated.

This ignores that it’s an asset that is decreasing in value and may wind up costing you a lot more than $20K to keep running and that you (the hypothetical “you”) might want another new car in the next 5-7 years. If you’re going to keep this car for the next 10 years for absolute certain, then sure, maybe.

There is nothing wrong with taking a loan with no interest, and the deferred payments can give some buyers breathing room if their current income situation has taken a hit.

I’m not sure you understand how depreciating assets work. 

The Opel GTs, Ferrari 360s, TVR Tuscans, Lamborghini Diablos, Audi TTs (be still my beating heart), Porsche 911s, and occasional Dodge Vipers—these captivated me even at the age of 10. When I was 11, I saw a Bugatti Veyron prototype in a small exhibit in downtown Berlin, three years before the car launched. These…

It was good but I like the usual episodes a lot more. This felt like a vanity project. A well-deserved vanity project, don’t get me wrong, but still. 

You’re only in “quarantine” if you’re sick or likely were exposed to someone who was sick. The majority of us are just in isolation or are distancing. 

They’ll look spiffy after the first mulch load. 

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea to pay extra to principal to knock off that interest... but if you’ve got low rate fixed money on a multi-decade home you likely won’t live in for that long, there are a lot of better places to invest your money. In comparison to a car loan, the house is (presumably) appreciating, or a…

If your one of those losers

A perfect car for an aspiring Uber driver if Uber didn’t insist vehicles be no more than ten years old. 

So wait... put away that extra $162/mo for 84 months? That would be $13,608.... to earn 1.7%? Your last paragraph is where my mind is immediately at — paying off the depreciating asset is never a bad play. People seem to keep missing the fact that the value of the car is going south. This isn’t a house, where paying…

This assumes your income and expense in the rest of your life remain the same or better than when you took the long-ass car loan. If there is any risk that those things worsen and your debt to income ratio changes, there is definitely value to paying off the loan on a depreciating asset sooner than originally…

Narcissism. 

Was this photo meant to show the vehicles this Mustang could out-accelerate?

I don’t need some chap saturated in polyester and aquavelva on commission to help me evaluate the purchase of a car.

And they used to do it in America. In the ‘60s, you could readily check the boxes you wanted and get the exact car you wanted delivered.
