Fuck it. Go CTSV.

Charger

CTSV 2

SS

ATSV (550whp with just s tune) my local dealer has a red one knocked down to $59k

Charger


Since a car seat and leg room were mentioned that would be my order

yeah, I was gonna say I like the ATSV's, but they don't look like they have shit leg room in the back.

They don't, I sat in one last week.

So.. I'm putting around 100k in a CD for the next 12 months, and I'm saving as much as I can "should be around 15-20k", and I'm going for a CTS-V. My wife is going for either an Audi Q6 or a Porsche Macan.

It's the same chassis as a 6th gen camaro. It has slightly more than one of those but not much. It's fine for children or normal sized adults for a short period of time.

Did you say you used a financial advisor? I hope you're not paying them much, could get all that info from personal finance Reddit tbh lol. And not to be that guy, but if I had that kind of cash laying around, I would definitely be investing as opposed to pouring my money into a depreciating asset. I know you said you came into money, and I have no idea how much (not like it's my business), but I would personally continue living how you have been and pay off bills and then invest the rest of the money. Unless you've got buku money now, I bet you will regret dropping 150k on cars later down the line. Id personally focus on investing for retirement.

Shit my relatively conservative investments have netted me +20.3% returns so far this year, and my dividends have damn near canceled out any fees. 20% on 150k = 30k profit doing absolutely nothing. Just sayin lol

I won't get super in depth with our money situation, but I will say that a >5% spending on 2 cars isn't going to affect my outcome at all. I've already followed Dave Ramsey's 7 steps to being debt free, so we have 0 debt. So our equity is an asset alone, which is around 225,000. Our investments should put us in the high 7 digit range when we hit retirement age, and that doesn't include what I'm putting in separately from my own personal income.

The problem with new cars is you lose so much in the first 5 years.. But any car is going to depreciate. At the end of the day, what is important is if you can afford it.

yeah, sounds like you've thought it over and can afford it, so good for you. If I had enough money and planned on continuing to work and not retiring early, I sure as hell would blow money on a nice ride too, cuz like most everyone here, I am a car enthusiast. So fuck it, and its super cliche to say, but you only live once so live it up and enjoy it.
