Both. Half own a house with my ex. We both moved out of it due to getting new jobs in another city and live in rentals now.
We still have the house, and rent it out.

Maybe consider a compromise option - buying a house, and then getting a used car? Plenty of fun to be had with used sports cars, maybe get an F82 or an E92. You'll still have a ton of fun, you'll have your own garage to take care of it, and it won't depreciate as much. Hell, the E92 probably wont depreciate at all so owning it will essentially be 'free' by the time you sell it.


Look at other options too, like do you actually plan to settle where you live long term? Moving is easier when you're renting.
You could also rent a place with a garage spot. Or move somewhere where houses are cheaper so you can afford both (depends on your situation of course).

I rent a room in a house and pay a little extra for a garage spot. That's an option too.
