My home boy swears that owning a luxury car doesn't cost more than owning a regular car

[TLR Is Mental Poison]

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.

10-12 year old Hondas = the same as brand new Nissans?

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.

Unless people are buying used, not really. My Civic cost like $1K less than a same year 328i with similar years and miles. I made a thread about S class prices dropping like rocks.... you can get the last body for less than $20K no problem. So these cars are not out of reach used.

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.

You don't have to see it- it's out there. Funny money in the car game is at an all time high

It Starts: Subprime Auto Loans Implode (in Your Bond Fund)

New-car loans keep getting longer

Etc

And lets not sit here and pretend like stunting isn't essential in our community. Odds are higher than not someone young in a nice whip is probably in over their head financially.

nikka don't do that bytch technique of leaving out info and then trying to use that as some fukking ah ha gotcha. nikka you didn't put your shyt was waaaaaaaaay older than your people's car you just put they had different ones so don't fukking use the age now like I previously knew about it. That's weak shyt. That being said still doesn't change how I view the topic. Everybody not going to buy cars at the same time anyway but you still aren't far in terms of,the type even with the age difference.

Secondly just because you found A S class Mercedes for 20k don't mean that's the going rate for the majority of them. Stop playing these bullshyt games with me. The last body S class ain't going on avg for 20k period. So stop the sensational garbage and tell that to these other dudes on here that believe anything.

People stunt all the time I just don't understand while y'all really care when you not footing the bills one way or another. I could see if that's the case but outside of that its just hope they got their shyt straight for me. Of they don't welp just a hard lesson they hopefully learn from. What y'all be on sounds like hater shyt to me disguised as concern. A tactic haters are good at.

In the end for me it's not even about the luxury status of a car. It's about nice engine (3.5L and up unless it's tuned to perfection) AND a thoughtful well made interior/exterior design.

A lot of you guys are willing to forego the engine and pay a premium for the badge and the exterior design. Personally it's gotta have both for me.

***Let's be real. The interiors on these sub 100k cars are all the same pretty much. Same leather. Same brushed this and wood that.

If your car has a hand stitched leather dash, suede liner, and hand stitched leather seats then come to me and tell me how the interior was worth the 20k extra you paid for your 320i over that loaded Passat you could have had.

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

I think it's been previously said but aside from the discussion OP you sound like you are taking a different turn in life then ya mans. That being said you need to stop associating with losers. There's a lot to be said with you are the company you keep...

Start hanging around successful dudes. Ud be surprised...

I'm good with my 2016 Honda Accord Touring joint and 2015 CRV. Love Hondas. Still have a 99 Honda Civic and just gave my sister a 95 Accord that still runs like new.

It's not really that deep. I've hung around him and my other boys since high school, and we all had diff stages of life when we were struggling. I'm not gonna say my life > his or anything like that because that's not how I look at things.

I understand what you guys are saying. And honestly, I've been thinking about not hanging with them anymore. But like you said, my life hasn't really taken off yet. I already don't see him as much because I moved, but when my career starts and I really quit the weed....I probably will stop hanging around him. That being said, I do have some really successful friends that I try to stick to.

The thing is, sometimes you have to realize it before your life really takes off. It's hard to move up when your circle is not on the same wavelength. Most of the time, they're not even consciously trying to hold you down either.
