A car is a utility like a washing machine
SAVE YOUR MONEY U are going to need it..
My financial advisor says people who own MB look rich but aren't rich, because they spend all their money on their cars. I once had a conversation with one of the heirs to the McDonald Douglas Corp..he said the difference between the rich and the wealthy is that the welathy drive VW Vanagons and the rich drive RR... Do you ever see anybody who has serious money driving around in anything fanicier that an Escalde...
But if you must..and why do I even need to say this to someone who makes some stroke? BUy the Gddamned thing when it is 2 years old and save HALF...RR, AM, B all depreciate like rocks...
If you wana spend some money buy something where the depreciation curve no longer applies...buy something that can be considered to be collectable...acht zoooo...something that if you have to get rid of it is an appreciating asset instead of a depreciating one...collectable may not be the greatest of all investments, but they are a store house of value with a small downside risk unless the world economy absolutlly collapses and a potentially a large upside gain.
