To me its quite simple what affordable is and your view on it is how I look at it. You can technically buy the car but if you can't buy it and do all the requisite stuff while not feeling some type of financial burden you can't afford it IMO. Its no need to make it harder than that but some must for some strange reason
There is nothing wrong with wanting a more expensive car. If you have the money for it, go for it! I think a corolla is a great buy or something along those lines. I'd get one to save money because I don't make that much now. If my paper was right, I'd definitely get a bmw or a Benz.

You're looking at it from a purely functional perspective. In that lens you're right. But people buy cars for a ton of other reasons (stunting, speed, etc)
U stay getting bent out of shape about nikkas shaming living beyond one's means though. What do you consider the baseline for being able to afford a luxury car? Having the $$$ to pay the note?

Failure is not a option
The majority of people spend less than 1 hour a day in their car, total.
It just gets you from point a to point b, just get a reliable brand with a solid warranty packaged with it and has decent modern technological toys.
Leather? Why? Clothe is just fine. Again, most people spend less than 1 hour a day in their car.
I'm basically saying there is no reason for anyone to get anything other than a modern toyota corolla:
MSRP: From $17,300
MPG: Up to 30 city / 42 highway
Curb weight: 2,800 to 2,875 lbs
Horsepower: 132 to 140 hp
Fuel tank capacity: 13.2 gal
Everything you need. Reliable. Fuel efficient. Roomy. Good features for good price. Resale value very high. What else do you need.
Please explain to me otherwise.

I hear where you're coming from breh, but let's be real there's a vanity component when it comes to buying cars and rightfully there should be. It's the 2nd or 3rd largest purchase you're going to make in life you really should put more thought into it than just Point a to Point b for the lowest possible amount of money. I don't mean "you" as in you I mean "you" in the general sense, btw.
Personally, if it doesn't have enough torque to pass on the highway, or a moonroof, or hid headlights, or good speakers, I can't fukk with it.
tell that 2 the 4 asians and the samoan who comes down pac-highway thru fife every night bout 9
them muhfukkas end up at down town tacoma...and race down tide flatts every up thru the hills in n.e tacoma...
regukar speed thats a 26 min drive..these nikka get there in 6min flatwith traffic
u can stand on the piers at point ruston n watch the neon lights go across the bridge n up the hills

With the way cars and technology are becoming one it doesn't make sense to spend so much on a luxury vehicle. Chevy cruz's and and shyt got better shyt than some luxury models at half the price. You buy a brand new lexus and 2 years later all the new cars got some hot technology that make ya car outdated that quick.

Is it that
bad that bad idk ? Lol I barley started using fourms and I never heard anyone say it in real life.
You ain't gettin no bytches riding that playboi you better get a foreign. Pull up in a G-wagon and watch the panties fall off
but when that CE light is flashing and you gotta pay $200 just to hook it up to their machine, and then you find out it's gonna be $1,100 to fix some issue that would've only cost $200 on a Nissan or Chevy, them panties falling ain't gonna help you.
This is true
But the Cruze still drives like a Cruze
Still gonna skruggle to leave nikkas from a light n pass on the highway. And will be loud and cramped.
I think there is still some legit reasons to buy luxury cars. U just feel different in them. That doesnt justify the stupid shyt people do financially to get in em tho
