mixxalot, if that’s your argument against buying a new car, then why did you buy a $15k used BMW when you can buy a $3k civic and invest the other $12k? That $3k civic will be much cheaper to maintain and last a lot longer than your BMW will too.
So if you’re saying Lexus is overpriced Toyota, then you’re saying everyone should buy a Yaris since a Camry or Avalon is just an oversized overpriced Yaris. I wonder why anyone would buy anything else than a used Civic.
