Do people really?
>inb4 poorfag
Then buy an nsx, countach, LFA, etc
>>

the new nsx sux. the countach was overrated. the lfa is overpriced
>>
>>28069484
I meant the old NSX but you’re strawmanning

>>28069481
and thus manufacturers decide that nobody wants anything other than egg shaped electric crossovers, because nobody ever buys their unique offerings.

Time is money for me. I cant be thinking about stupid shit like that.

Nobody sells a car that isn't a piece of shit. People sell cars when they know the vehicle is at death's door and is going to require imminent expensive repairs to keep on the road. On top of THAT, every single dealer or private seller is going to bullshit you about the state of the car.

>Yeah, the car is great! No problems at all! I love the car! That's why I'm selling it and spending a lot of money on another vehicle so I don't have to drive it anymore!

This is what usedfags actually believe. ON WHAT PLANET DOES THAT MAKE SENSE?!? Buy new, you're supporting the manufacturer and not a vulture. You know exactly what you're getting. You don't have to worry about how bad some retard abused it.

You're supposed to go into a used car knowing full well what you'll likely have to address and be able to do it your self. Complaining about it like that just outs you as a /n/igger

I bought a new 2019 base WRX new and it blew its engine before 5k miles. Dealer bought it back and gave me a discount on a new 2020 premium that I sold after 3 years and 10k miles because I realized that I just plain didn't care for WRXs after pining for one for nearly 20 years.

Also having worked at a dealer people sell their cars for more reasons than you might imagine. If its something sporty owned by an old person they may no longer want to deal with the inconvenience or their wife has complained long enough. If they're selling a small truck it may be they need something a size up or vice versa. Maybe they bought it then got laid-off a year or two later and would rather have cash in hand than a depreciating asset. If a vehicle has full service records and doesn't have some known catastrophic failure point buying used isn't scary.

I always hope that I see my WRX while I'm out but have yet to. Feel bad for the sucker that bought it used for 29k when I bought it new for 27k out the door.

>WRXs after pining for one for nearly 20 years
But they were good back then.
>>
>>28069999
Or I could just buy new or even lease and not have to deal with the peasant shit of having your car constantly need repairs?
>>
>>28069481
you say this and then complain when manufacturers don't make any cool/unique cars anymore
>>
>>28070007
Yeah, for better and worse the WRX is still stuck in 2005
>>
>>28069985
I've so far bought two used cars, one Alfa Romeo that was 12 years old at the time, and I've had it for a couple years now.
No issues.

I've recently bought a used BMW that is 8 years old, just had my first service.
No issues.

Maybe I'm just lucky.

if i ever had new econobox money i would never buy an econobox. you can buy so many cool fucking cars for a current year econobox.

my car is worth $367 by my insurance and I make $142,000 a year.
six figures isn't what it used to be.
it's not even middle class anymore.
>>

>six figures is not what it used to be
This was such a blackpill to me, don’t get me wrong I was pretty comfy when I was making 6 figs but my entire life up until then I thought that was “made it” money. Half a million is the new 100k, and ~70k is the new 40k

I make almost double you and i drive a $30k car. whats your point. as long as our cars get us reliably to work thats what counts.
in general a shittier car will be less reliable.
>>
>>28070709
my point is flexing about expensive cars is dumb
I also make way more than $140,000 a year.
just my day job makes that.
instead flex about income levels.

Let the plebes and suckers buy them new so I can swoop in and pay half when they dislike it after 2 years ownership

Poorfag cope, the only cars depreciating like that are EVs.

Sorento vs Highlander vs Countach. Yup.

>>28071103
more like youll be paying for an expensive engine rebuild when jamal thrashes his new car and gets it repoed
>>28070887
flexing in general is dumb, the only thing that fuckin matters is genetics.
i would rather be a 6'4 homeless bum than a 5'6 guy making $500k a year...

Yeah, that's the $5000 car market, you immense poorfag. Meanwhile in the actual decent car market people just get bored of stuff, or want something else, or buy something new because they must consooooom. So you buy a nice car used from someone who isn't a minority.
>>
>>28069481
People buy new daily drive utility vehicles (CRV's) but for an enthusiast you'd probably be better off with a kitcar from companies that offer complete kits. I can't think of anything more cucked than driving a modern "sports car" that weighs a fuck ton because of safety regulations. I mean it makes no sense unless you're just trying to show off but that doesn't make sense either because unless you cover it people can still see it on the trailer.

Imagine buying this entry level 'sportic' new car. Or did your mom buy it. My young anon won't buy used good deathbox!. Oh this new midly powered nippon only 29 ninety ninety nine? It suits him!

As soon as I thought I've caught up the goalposts get moved 20 miles down the road

Move smart and you’ll still be /comfy/ anon, you just won’t be “made it” comfy, unless you get lucky/invest it right. Greater make it potential though for sure, like exponentially more potential than someone making 50k a year

alot of people actually drive their car for like 1-5 years and then trade it in while it still has resale value and then get another brand new one,
but that's upper middle class money burning, I wouldnt be caught dead in a late model cause I am not a cuck with low t.

This includes new cars. So why pay new car money for a piece of shit?

I bought it outright myself. Quit hating and go back to driving your 2010s shitbox
>>
>>28069481
I've always wanted that experience of buying a brand new car, then keeping it and documenting every single thing i do maintenance on to see how long i can keep it alive until something fetal breaks.
