I wish I could stomach blowing so much $$ an F30 lol, I hunted around for my car for over a year and secured a really good deal. Do not want huge payments after mortgage and supporting my other turbo car ![]() I really wanna get back into an E30 I miss that car.

That will be my story as well. I've carried my 96 Mustang for about 11 years now with no car payment, and saved a lot in the mean time. Hoping to buy a 2011 335i in a couple months. I don't make 2.5x the price of a used 2011 335i, but I don't plan on having a big car note either.

you kids making barely above minimum wage and buying $40k+ cars used for like $20k... that's still more than your annual income! LOL. you kids have terrible decision making skills in personal finance.

for me since i been driving I've been working in the field professionally but never been to into mod's. only thing i've always been concerned about is sound systems. But i do them whenever I have some extra cash or just want to buy myself something. But as well as everything else I do I have a budget of how much I'm going to spend on modding. I'm generally really good with my budgets and usually stay within my means. if it wasn't for online shopping i wouldn't be able to have any mods lol |

I plan on making a thread about it eventually, but the short story is I was leaning to 2011 because of the fuel economy of the N55 and some other reviews I read about it vs the 2010.

When I got my first job after college I wasn't used to the income and burned through it pretty quickly, not really having a concept of how to manage money of a larger amount. Though I'm still young the last 4 years has taught me a ton about how/when to spend and how to save money effectively. Living life is the best learning tool there is. |

For most part, it's the initial investment that hurts. Same parts after that isn't too bad. IE: people who go through a bunch of wheels. They just sell their set and buy another set for +/- few hundred bucks.
