Ok ok ok, i know i have made a few posts about which car option should i go but yet i am still in a pickle. Here is my reasoning...im young (19) but have been taught well from my parents that saving and investing can be very very rewarding and it has allowed them to do things most people cant at their age 42. Now i am a HUGE car buff but am also a big money saver/investor.
I dont know what i should do. I would like to buy a performance car like a c5, c5 z06, cobra, supra, ect. but i would be throwing a lot of money away for the fun i would be having....
Reason being 25K for a car, then another 3k in mods...and i will enjoy that for awhile, then ill want more 2K in mods. After all of that i have a car that is now worth 21k (3k loss on the car itself and ill get nothing for the mods so really im out 5-8k).
vs
If i keep my car that is paid for i wouldnt have the fun i wish i would be having but in the end save me a ton and allow me to do other more important things. Like buy a house sooner, buy investment real estate, ect. ect. ????
I have the rest of my life to buy and mod cars but how do i balance fun/saving?
