Also I wouldn't buy a BMW, I would lease a BMW because their lease program is great but I would never own one unless it was the older M3s or M5s.
Mercedes and Audi are both expensive to maintain but they do look and drive wonderfully, I like the e class from merxedes .
Lexus is great and cheap to maintain since Toyota parts are easy to get, gs350 or isf

If you don't mind me asking, what do you do harass? You seem pretty well off (not just from this but I think I seen pics of ur house and etc) and you seem to be on JSP a lot esp during work hours.

That's actually fuckin sweet. Might I ask the make and model? Also, if it's not invading too much on your privacy (or making you uncomfortable) what do you do for a living? Be real interested in hearing about your career path especially if it's business related as I'm hopefully gonna start a career in the next month (finally after 14 months of looking for a job... 9 months alone post-graduation)


I'm co-owner of a finance company. We buy and sell accounts receivable. We buy about 1 million dollars in invoices a month and make 5% on account. I'm on jsp when it's slow at work. Things and batches of invoices come in waives.

I've been working here for over 13 years now. Family business that's getting passed down to me. I'm one lucky SOB, but i've worked hard for it too. I took my first day off in 3 years yesterday to play golf with my gpa. (i don't work on saturday/sunday) and I only work from 8-2. Because wires have to be in at 2.

I would buy an XF 3.0 Jaguar, family car, four door starting in the 50's with 370 hp and if you wanted the power drop an extra 18g's on the 5.0 super charged 470 hp model.

Ballin...

Depends what are you talking about?

I'd go for the Honda Civic.


LMAO

Only kids who just turned 16 and want to feel cool drive this thing.



@harasmusen

Hard to suggest you cars, 99% of the cars are under 60k :p

You said you need 4 seats. Do you prefer 4 doors or 2 doors ?

I have an '02 and I love it, you have the budget for a 2010+ with low mileage, and if you're gonna drop that much money on a car might as well go with something that has the power and the luxury. We're talking 4.0L V8 400+ HP, and given the quality of my '02 you can tell BMW really tries to make the M3 the perfect car. Sounds like you'd be able to afford the maintenance with ease. Would be the best decision of your life.

That's pretty cool actually and smart use of capital. 5% monthly... wow is all I can say when you compare it to other financial instruments and investments. :hail:
