@Stuntone you're single making 100k and that's the best you can do?

What's better? This is one of my favorite cars ever. I'm kind of cheap, but this is a 80k car, I'm getting it for a 1/4 of that. I love the color and wheels. All is need is tint. There's not much out there better for me.

:what:

Trading a old luxury for a more expensive, almost as old luxury

What the fukk is wrong with you?


nikkas obsessed with driving a luxury car they don't give a fukk how many miles on that bytch or what year it is :snoop:


Pathetic nikkas trying to front living a life style they can't afford, SMMFH @ paying fraction the cost of a luxury new car just to sit in an old 100k+Miles car with the same name



But then driving home to their shyt dump pad :wow:

God damn I need to save up so I can flex like this :snoop:

These older high end cars aren't that expensive to be honest. Audi's and Mercedes are at the top of the depreciation scale. The problem is the maintenance. I'd be hard pressed to own something like this out of warranty.

@Stuntone , this is a very DC Metro-esque move on your part. Maybe this area got to you more than you figured.

That's what I hear anyway, my cousins husband had two a6's one was a 99 the other an 08, he sold them both said there were too many maintenance costs. I always hear not to buy them bc the North American ones are put together in Mexico. I don't need a new car anyway, don't want to pay month to month, I'll move and I'll just take the bus/subway/ride my bike if I can. Not tryna get a whip until I have kids I think.

I wouldn't do it. As stated you are basically trading in the same car. If 25k is the most you can spend, you can find a better value for a newer car out there.

i LOOOOOVE german cars too (audi, VW, and Merc), but i wouldn't buy one out of warranty. they can be money pits if they weren't taken care of by the previous owner. and even if they were, the maintenance costs for these cars are :snoop:. but you already own an Audi, so you know this already. the car is dope, and if you like it and have thought about the pros and cons, then i say go for it.

edit: you said you were about to quit your job and go back to Louisiana and you want to buy this car anyway.......

:patrice: ioknow breh....you might wanna reconsider. just pay your current whip off and chill until you find a new gig. then revisit the idea....

If I'm going to pay a car note then it's going to be for something covered under factory warranty and not older than 4yrs.

What you're doing is pretty dumb, you're getting rid of an almost paid off reliable vehicle to pay on another vehicle that's a year older and has a damn back-up cam and navigation? If you're going to upgrade and pay on a car for a few more years might as well go all out.

My car has 146k miles, still looks and drive great. No major problems. I owe 4600, theyre giving me 5 for it.

This A8 has 56k, fully loaded. Everything! Bose sound, Nav, Backup Cam etc. They 25k, AS-IS. They let me take it home tonight and I'm suppose to take it to the Audi Dealer tomorrow to get checked. No way I'm getting a appt that fast. They offer an Preferred Warranty for 60k mi for 3700$. If I finance with them my interest rate would be 2.9%.My payment would be in the 400s if I put down 3k. I'm loving this car, it rides like a luxurious tank. Very heavy, but fast. I'm 6'2 but feel like a little kid. I have the car until 3pm tomorrow. What should I do folks? The carfax is clean. This is practically my reasonable dream car. Oh yea, I suppose to be quitting my job in a few months and going back home, but my saving is straight. I could buy this out if everything goes well next week.

How many nikkas get the chance to drive their dream car? :to: How many dudes get a chase to live! I've worked hard for these CACs for 14 years. Cert after Cert. When I'm older, at least I can say I drove what the fukk I want and wasn't always playing it safe. I love cars, so you honda and stratus driving dudes can't tell me shyt!
:mjpls:


There really isn't any other car I want. I'm far from broke, just cheap. My house sells next Friday, I could buy this thing right out. Audi aren't as expensive yoFu guys think. My Audi is great. I'm hearing the A8 is a tank.
