- vote Text messages from work It appears to have reached a point of absurdity where our personal phones are used for 100’s of texts from managers each day. @autonation GM creates a new text group every half hour for whatever question he has. We have also had to implement sales team text groups. When should the company reimbu
- Car insurance has gone significantly up in WA? It seems the renewal quote is way more than one year back. I contacted Progressive and they said WA has some new rules leading to increased policy premiums. Did you observe the same? Progressive policy, 6 moths premium for BMW 330 is now 900$ jumped from 700$ , last year: TC: 350k$ #auto #amazon

- Want a stupid expensive car TC: 480k Want a stupid expensive car. For me, that means up to 90k. Drive kids to school, Costco runs. Do not consider used cars. Want an old-fashioned luxury sedan, no EV. European or US maker. No SUVs, sport cars, coupes, convertibles. Want an adaptive cruise control, 360 view camera, CarPlay,
- Social status in different cultures I went on a random hike this Saturday. I couldn't help but notice that white people prefer to get dogs from shelters / rescues but Asians go for purebred pups (like red white border collies and Pomeranians). These dogs cost more than $1500 and that's just for the puppy!! Similar with cars: my white
- Car to buy in Zurich I all! I always dreamed about having a nice car, (BMW M8 / Audi R8 / etc…) but with €43K TC it would have been difficult to afford it without waiting for many years. Luckily I found a job in Zurich with $200K TC and those cars seems now at reach ! With a total comp of 200K in Zurich, what do you
- Tesla be others for smart driving How do competitors like Porsche, Audi, bmw, Mercedes, Lexus compare. Can’t find anything on internet that actually compares Tesla to other gas cars in terms of smart driving features. Mostly looking for ability to stop and go in traffic. Are these avail anywhere else or is Tesla the only option?

- Volvo XC90 Strongly considering the new Volvo XC90 as it is the safest family vehicle I can think of, looks good inside out as well. People who own Volvos, can you comment on the typical Volvo maintenance? Is it expensive to maintain like BMWs? I currently own a 09 bmw328i and averaging 1500$ in maintenance p
- vote Lease vs buy on loan Looking to buy a BMW X3 for 44k Lease offer: $469 per month for 36 months, $2605 down; $965 acquisition fees.

- vote What to do with the money? I have around 1 Cr INR or 150K USD (450K at PPP?) lying around in stocks and funds. I’m 26 and single, my only fixed expense is rent and living my life. My family thinks I’ve done good enough but I can do much better if I keep this up. They always advise against buying anything even semi luxurious,

- New Grad Car Final Call Convince me not to splurge on a 59-60k car. I posted earlier about getting a car. I also stated that I want to enjoy nice things when i’m still young. I doubt I’d want to drive a BMW at 60. Not fun at all. From the comments, a Mazda CX-5 came out as the clear winner. However, we only live once and v
- Auto insurance Geico just increased my bill and I am paying ~$1200 for 6 months for a 2012 BMW for myself (been with GEICO for 5 years) and my wife (added in the last year). No claims. Is that reasonable? Wife hardly ever drives and I was wondering if there is anything I could do to decrease the bill. Any pointe
- buying a new car first time buying a car. Decided to buy a new car so please don’t give advice on whether I should buy used. I am thinking of buying a bmw 3 or benz glc in the bay area. How do I get the most discount from dealers etc? I don’t know how to go about negotiations. What is the realistic % off MSRP I sho
- Slightly tangent.... but what do you drive? Thinking about upgrading my old faithful, 16yo Honda. Car gets me to point A to B but would like to splurge and treat myself to a luxury car/suv. Really not sure where to even begin. Lexus is smooth and reliable but boring. Felt every pothole on the road when test driving BMW. Tesla Model 3 made me
- I had the race card pulled on me Guy In a BMW hits my car, and there are witnesses. He tried to get away without leaving a note. Confronted him and explained that he needs to give me proof of insurance and his DL. Guy is uncooperative, plays the victim and refuses to comply so I was forced to call the police. He calls me (Asian), g
- Car Insurance for test drive or for a month! Disclaimer: Multiple Questions I always decline insurance as my credit card takes care of it. How can I make sure I am covered totally when I rent a car? What exactly is 3rd party, liability, full coverage, or any other insurance? Also, how to make sure you are not liable for car damage just in c
- East side European Kirkland reviews Any feedback on this service station in Kirkland, WA for Bmw cars? The guy who owns it seems like a knowledgeable guy, but tries to mint few dollars here n there and reduces the price when questioned as to why it costs more than the previous time.
- Share dumb financial choices stories I’ll start: I have a friend who went to my state university and ended up $200k in debt, all because they wanted to go out of state. They make $50k/year as a social media manager now. I have a friend who has a $800 car payment just so they could buy a BMW. They had to move back in because they no l
- Suggestions for a new car? Been driving a beat up Japanese car for the better part of a decade now and looking for a change. I'm not a speed junkie but a nice car with great add-ons/features would be really nice. Target budget is $40k-$75k. Not a family guy yet but I'd still prefer a coupe only if it looks different enough fr
- Lexus nx300 f sports alternative Planning to buy Lexus. I have search online. But I am new in USA, so thought of taking some advice. The thing is: I dont like look of Audi, Merc, BMW alternatives. I know looks is subjective. But any better looking alternative in similar price range? Looking for compact SUV only.
- How do corporates move money out of China? Given that it’s impossible for Chinese citizens to move any significant amount of money overseas, how does it work for international corporates like BMW or Gucci to move their sales proceeds outside of China? What sort of rules do they have to follow in order to be allowed? I am thinking if there i
- Recommendation for a new car? I have a bmw 3 series right now, it drives really well but consumes a lot of gas. I am planning to sell the car in the next few months. What are the good car options for me? I want a high power compact suv with good gas mileage. One of my concerns is having enough power to pass or merge easily on
- Buying Pre-owned car around COVID I am planning to buy a CPO BMW X1 2017 xDrive. Considerations/Constraints: 1) ~25k on-road price, ie incl tax, registration etc 2) ~30k miles (can i relax this constraint?) 3) Cash or 0.9% APR (12month?) with 2k down payment (have excellent credit)?

- vote Buying new car as new college grad I graduated this year and started as a hardware engineer at Apple (TC 140k). Growing up I’ve always been a car enthusiast and wished to buy BMW or Tesla. As I’m asking for opinion from my friends and family about buying a new car many insist of buying new Honda or Toyota as a first car and build up
- vote Tesla vs Porsche vs Corvette I currently drive a Tesla Model 3 and want to upgrade to something better. Wife has a BMW X3 which we use as the primary car and I work from home, so this can be my fun car. I can spend up to $80k, but I love a good deal. TC 400k I live in a nice house in the NJ suburbs, so charging is not an is
- Can Tesla continue to add 1T valuation every year? 1T is already in sight in next month or so, can it reach 2T in 2022 and 3T in 2023 and so on.... The reason this trend looks very much possible is because Tesla does not even sell 1 percent of what other successful automakers like BMW, Mercedes, GM sells but market valuation of Tesla is already mor
- vote Model S owners - do you recommend it? Looking to buy used Model S - 2015 or 2016. Love the car overall. It’s not as sporty as other sports sedans - the likes of BMW m3 or Mercedes C43, but very comfortable and really fast acceleration for all practical use cases.
