I have a picture of my neighbors loaner Lexus being out on a tow truck while their is350? Or something was being serviced. I have encountered shit like that for major brands.

Honestly, get a truck for a daily with leather interior and whatever comfort features you want. Spent the rest going through whatever dream cars you want to buy, drive for some time, then sell.

If you don?t have something very specific in mind that?s coming out of your belly like some alien baby, then just go through a testing phase. You can rent peoples cars for a few days and try it that way.
There?s some app for this shit.

Not a fan of trucks or SUVs. I've been test driving vehicles every weekend. Newer cars are getting more reliable and not all luxury brands are maintenance nightmares. I understand there will be maintenance, I just don't want alfa romeo level maintenance.

If you were asking about a 2 door, and had the same budget, M2 all day long. Especially in that teal blue they come in...omg...that car is sex. But...4 doors is an adult decision.

That's exactly what I was getting at. Incredible car but probably better for me when im making stupid money.
I actually saw that exact M2 two weeks ago. Wow. I've made irrational decisions in the past though. Wouldn't be surprised if I did it again.
