For y'all nikkas arguing over the reasoning for buying luxury cars, my homie specifically stated that he would rather gamble on the life of a luxury car rather than something with a reliable rep just because he wants to stunt. The nikka doesn't know much about cars either. When I said that I wanted a Ford Fusion or something of the like until I graduate he laughed at me and asked me if I know what Ford stands for (Found On Road Dead). Also, he's currently in barber school.

Basically, he's in no situation to be buying a luxury car. He doesn't even have a job, but smokes weed every day and spends his refund check from community college on shyt like Jordans and weed. Compound his situation with his poor reasoning and it's completely :mindblown:
When u put it like that it kind of makes sense. Dude aint got shyt going on for himself.... having a nice car is the easiest way for him to "matter"

Yeah I've heard dudes say that about cars because unless its you on that fast and furious shyt most AA not really pushing them smaller cars like that. Almost everybody on here that's loving them smaller cars seem to be non AA. Maybe its a culture thing or they hang with them types of dudes. I bet in your circle its a bunch of cats pushing civics and other small ass cars cause people don't deviate far from their group. That's not other people's group so I don't see the problem with it esp since we ain't paying nobodies bills out here. Yes people want to be seen but you do too. Now if you come in my circle with a civic its Comedy Central but in yours you probably get props that's just how it is. That's life certain things play in certain spots.

A house only has value if you sell it which you may never do. Its also not like a house can't lose value and people value things differently. Everybody don't have to do things like you cause that's the "right" way to do them. I also think you want to see and hear people do it wrong cause those that aren't doing it wrong make you and others fell some type of way. That's all I can gather because ofttimes online and even off when cats have things of status its always the well they probably broke, its leased, they just want to show off (like those other with less are sooooo humble), whatever else to downplay people with nice things.

I can see your side and don't really care much since I'm not paying for it but I also see my pov.
When I ran with a crew everyone had Maximas/V6 Altimas/G35s but I always had Hondas for some reason. I have always been that way. nikkas never clowned me :yeshrug: Your point about groups kinda speaks to what I'm saying. Your crew makes fun of people with cars they don't like, so you won't buy a car they don't like. Not saying thats the only or main reason but that is a reason. But if u arent stressing about $$$$ I guess it is what it is

I dont have a problem with people not doing what I did, I just hate seeing people throw their financial stability away or waste time over stupid shyt. Taking a 84 month loan out on an old 7 series is some pretty stupid shyt, but people do it all the time :yeshrug:

Do you still live at your moms house? If you did, would you buy an old BMW before you moved out?


except the cost of luxury parts are much higher than the cost of non luxury parts
Based on what? your own experience of owning a "luxury car" or just here-say?

based on internet research and infomation from mechanics. you don't necessarily need to have owned a "luxury car" to know what kinda of money you would be putting into it.

honestly, I could not care less about what my group of friends has to say about what kind of car I want to buy. I think a Chevy Cruze fits me more but I would still jump at the chance to own a Ford Fusion. but yeah I understand your point.

Why don't you just say you can't afford one currently and its nothing to do with parts either. Something tells me if that book blew the fukk up you would so therefore gotta hit you with this just requested song by me to you.

I'm not worried about anything financially, im chasing my dreams... the money is coming whether my book blows up or not. I suspect it's gonna be a slow burn establishing my series but it will pay off in the end. Even if I had the money i dont need that european snobbery piece of shyt just to stunt on the likes you fools... I'm perfectly fine with buying a dodge challenger and calling it a day or getting a nissan maxima. :ehh: I'm built that way.

Get back to me when you get the money and resist the temptation cause I've heard that many of times until it actually happened then shyt changed. Also wish y'all nikkas stop with this silly online nikka you don't have to impress anybody bullshyt cause its a lie period. nikka you trying to impress somebody just like everybody else.

You was still in the same ballpark to me. You wasn't no divergent so of course nikkas can't clown you when its basically the same shyt. I'm not saying its twinsies with exact cars. No actually I will buy a car they don't "like". I'm just realistic enough to know I'm not that different than most of them. I personally will cop a c class, 3 series, etc they won't but its not to,far from what the majority of,the people I roll with drive whether its Cadillacs or mid size or bigger cars. I'm always saying cats need to stop that silly stuff on here with baby mom cars when most of them cost more than the Impalas, malibus, camrys, accord, type cars most pushing.

I guess cause I don't personally know cats don't no shyt like that I can't relate regarding these loans. Dudes I roll with ain't having financial problems so I'm like whats the problem and esp online cats make it like everybody with nice cars broke trying to stunt. Maybe cats got money and can comfortably afford nice things. That's how I look at it.

I don't know you to tell you who your trying to impress but everybody does to some extent. If you want though you can be the one that doesn't try to impress anybody if that makes you feel better. Its not true though but hey I'm not you and vice versa so it don't matter what the other thinks at the end of the day to be honest.

I have a C300 and it's not too much more expensive in upkeep than a regular car. I use premium gas and try to abide by the service interval requirements outlined in the owners manual. Following that should keep your car in good shape. I feel like it's an even trade off for the quality improvement you're getting. Luxury cars age quite well if they're well taken care of. I plan on keeping mine for quite sometime.
