:dead:


Skip math classes breh :ufdup:



The car is 6 years old with 56k miles on it. It's an $80,000. I got a steal. :whew:


Sorry breh, but buying old luxury cars is a silly endeavor, you're already behind the newest body style which is the entire point of having one. By the time you're done paying it off you'll be 2-3 generations behind and nobody will even think of giving you half of what you paid for it.

I could see if this were a GTR/ZR1 where there's a limited supply so resale stays high, but A8s are dime a dozen. As long as you like it that's cool, but you won't view it as a steal when you have to sell it.

Wrong! I love this car, way more than the new bodies. This is my dream car, this model. I don't care about having the newest, to me this is the flyest audi. This is the gangster murderous version. :birdman: Big body joint! Reminds me of the old 96 impalas. Big and fast. I don't ever want to trade it or sell it. Unless I'm getting a W12.


What you drive? :lupe: and where do you see these A8s a dime a dozen? I'm in DC and I rarely see them.

:whoa:

My girl and I have a family truckster :sadcam: (Acura MDX), but I've owned plenty of performance cars in the past and while they were my dream cars or things I loved, within a couple of years that love fizzled out when they needed new parts that cost an absurd amount. I'd never buy a used luxury car, but that's just me.


I live in NY and I see A8s all the time, a guy on my street has a black S8 :manny:

Listen to this man. Used luxury cars out of warranty will eat you alive. Especially German ones. But go ahead and stunt OP. Do you. But don't say you weren't warned. :wow:

He was talking about in 4 years when you're still making payments on it. His math is fine. And you shouldn't be talking shyt after that shytty mathematical justification you posted about home ownership :ufdup:

If its a purchase you can swing (stupid or not) go for it but :pachaha: @ you comparing home ownership to this.

Where did you hear this shyt?

:what:


If by underwater, you mean way over their heads in debt...then they just fukked up.

If you can afford to buy a house, it's a good investment.

Nothing is GOOD if you can't afford it.

Buy an affordable house, keep it a little, renovate a little, and then sell it later down the line.

It still works.
i hate to tell you but that is not always true

many people are trying to unload homes that are not even worth what they paid for them

it really depends on the location of the home tho

we are in a seller's market right now but in some areas homes are just loosing value daily

i say do what you want

but it doesnt make sense to get rid of the 06

i would just pay it off and maybe get a new car in a year or 2


i just bought a 2013 F150 fx4

but i had a 2001 Lincoln LS that i bought for cash in 2003 and never had to worry about a note
i rode that bytch to the end and got way over my money's worth
