Most people would rank luxury cars over economy cars. There's a huge difference in price too. For example, BMW is almost twice the cost of a Toyota. I have driven various cars so far (all used cars, in time order): - Audi A6 for 2 years - Honda civic for 2 years - Volkswagen GTI for 5 years - BMW 3...Read more

What careers or salary levels correlate to comfortably buy cars in this range? #personalfinance
Recently joined a new team and my manager had a tragic accident. He was a very good man and I am extremely upset that something like this had happened. Just makes me realize how unfair and unpredictable life is. We all continue to work as if nothing had happened. Just hate the fact about how desensi...Read more
Tc 300k I own a BMW and my monthly car loan is like $300+ and insurance just got bumped to $200+; Plus I have spent at least 5000 dollars fixing it over the course of 3 years. I can barely afford food because of this car. Should I just change to a Japanese car like Lexus, as a significant downgra...Read more

I’m dabbling between getting a Audi/Merc mid range SUV or go for Tesla(model Y). I want to future proof the purchase so that if I want to sell, the resale value won’t go down anymore than the standard depreciation. Planning to have a kid in a year, so a mid range SUV would be nice. I’m not married...Read more

I prefer hybrid but okay with gas car as long as it is comfortable for everyone, specially parents who will have to go back whil...Read more
Hyundai appears to be receptive to consumer wants. Most Japanese car companies just want to keep selling the same stuff. European cars are also conservative, but they are still desirable. I am also excited about Chinese cars. They have come a long way.

Public transport is more environment friendly than owning electric cars fwiw
Like after the first week of dopamine rush, it's the worst. I hate having to take it in for maintenance. I'm probably getting ripped off. If you refuse extra service, the techs might just "ding" up the axles so you have to come in more than needed. Insurance is expensive even though I've never cau...Read more
I’m also curious. For those of you who make $350k + per year, which is the amount to afford a Lamborghini/Ferrari/McLaren/etc and live comfortably, do you really drive those cars or think about driving one? Feel free to share TC and the car you drive as well.
