I make around 150k a year. I have a very specific budget... 401k, rainy day savings, living expenses, etc. After all that goes out, I'm left with my car funds. I'm not a huge traveler and I don't go out and party/drink a lot. Fortunately no long term debt like college loans, etc. My reward for working hard in life is driving an awesome car. If you know how to budget you can easily afford a car like this.

I'd love to see the equivalent of this thread over on FerrariChat...
"I made $750k last year plus another $500k in bonuses, but we do own four properties and spend $20k / month on vacations. Also I own 16 other cars. It's all about priorities."

I haven't read most of the thread - I anticipate its like most threads like this...a lot of low-key forum flexin'. I don't make much, but I saved and got creative with the BMW select and investing to make it work. I've always wanted an M car, now I do, but if something happened to it and it disappeared tomorrow - it was only ever just a "thing".
YOLO and in these days, who the f knows how long that will be.

It's not that bad over there:-) Definitely some grade A chads over there. I do remember some dude saying if he had to stoop to a BMW, he would drive off a cliff. Lol🤣🤣

Your location says Arizona (not that familiarity with Florida architecture is universal for people who don't live there and rarely actually think about the place except in the context of "Florida Man"), but OK, just saw an opportunity for a jest involving 70's finished basements and the implication that your mom also lives in the basement with no clear mention of who lives above the basement.
As always, if you have to explain a joke it wasn't a joke that worked, so that's that. |

I make about $140K a year from my CalPERS pension and Social Security. I currently have a 2015 F82 M4 and a 2015 Honda Gold Wing. I paid off the mortgage on my house in 2007. I ordered a G82 M4, IOMG with tartufo full leather, on August 29 last year, and I'm STILL waiting. Presumably, I'll get it before Hell freezes over but right now it's looking an awful lot like vaporware.

You should make at least $15k a month to have a car like this. I'm my opinion anything less is irresponsible. You never know what can happen so having two years living expenses in reserve is necessary. $1300 for your car + $3000 house expenses + everything else and you are at $7k a month easily. You should make double that at the very least so you can afford to save money every month
