With a good budget, extra money is good for fun

I had this same dilemma a few months ago.

Background:
My wife and I both budget well, are saving for retirements, kids college, have a rainy day fund >6 months.

The company I work for ended up giving out much bigger bonuses this year, so we decided that we should replace the 986 we sold 3+ years ago.

Turns out, with ultra low interest rates and great credit, many banks are almost giving money away (~1% interest on new car loan), so we ended up getting a new 981 S.

Summary: If you have a budget with savings already, extra money is good for fun things.
