Yes, when I bought my first house 25 years ago it cost 76000.00 Brand new, also a new 911 Porsche cost $31,950.00, so what, what does that have to do with anything, co'mom, that's a ridiculous comparison. Can you get a new 911 for 32K, HA, I wish, what are they now 78k for a basic 911, with no options. What is the price different between a new Boxster s and a Spyder, 58K vs 61.2K that's 3200.00, not a big difference.

It's not really that dumb a comparison when you live where I do and a fixer upper, cape can be had for 75K. I'm getting 850.00 a month for a similar house, I love sports cars but the reason I chose "used" was to spend money on investments that pay me back so I can be retired from the corporate musical chairs game. I respect your choice to buy the new spyder, it's a beautiful car, we all spend a long time in the dirt, so why not?
