Any car that cost in that range and up, I would just buy it outright. So if I made 100K, I would have to work 3.5 years to have enough to buy it. Having a note just makes no sense for something that large. And it depreciates immediately? It's like student loans all over again.
It's the opposite. You're better off having a note BECAUSE it depreciates so quickly. Especially if you have good credit.

That's actually the worst advice and what we used as car salesmen to get folks to buy more car than they need or could reasonably afford. :snoop:
So true. Just had a salesman ask me how much I was trying to spend on a new car. I told him I needed to know the cost of the car to determine the an estimated monthly. Then he started spitting numbers 15k over msrp. Let’s just say he still has the car.

But let some random coli poster that's never had a sales job put you on game. :russ:

150-200k at the most :picard: but a $75k car note?!? What's the lease like???:why: what is it like a Maybach or supercar?!?

Nah, not something like Maybach or similar supercars lol

We are talking about Charger SRT Hellcat and similar range. And I'll say you should be making around 125k - 150k.

How much is a $75000 car note? :patrice:

I love cars. Love riding fly. I'm almost in the market to get a new whip. I'm really not trying to spend more than 50k. But all the super fly cars are around 75. I really want a Audi A7. or an SUV like an Escalade or Range Rover with a great warranty. I make good money but 1000$ monthly note to me is crazy.

Back in Louisiana, the say is don't spend a lot of money on a vehicle unless you can making money with it. Like hotshotting or towing.


What yall think?
Just depends on that downpayment. If you have good credit and put down 30k you can get that whip under $400/month. But you're an idiot to spend that kinda bread on a car if you dont have a house yet. That same 30k downpayment should be on a house instead.
