As such, the Panny GTS and the Merc CLS 63 both seemed like great bankg for the buck cars, while still being representative of a 46yo business owner.

keep the advice coming

$4000 a month on a car payment? Thats Ferrari 458 or Porsche Carrera GT payments for me AND a house mortgage. What do Bentleys cost these days? Over $1,000,000?

Exactly... 4 grand seems like a bit much. For 4,000 dollars a month I could have a hooker and blow problem and still lease an M3.

Lmao!!! Hooker and blow problem... Hahaha I like that!

Those cars aren't typically financed - they're bought in cash. That said, $4k a month for 5 years will finance about $250k which is the right price for some of these cars.

Yup...My partner drives a RR Ghost....gorgeous car, but "old" for my tastes. Lease is $4K/,month He is single, no wife, no kids, so that's how he chooses to spend his money. I on the other hand, have two great kids and a wonderful wife. So, need to strike a balance. Any of the aforementioned cars I listed are in the $1800/month range on a 36 month lease. Not cheap certainly, but affordable, and worth it to me.

Do you live in a trailer?

EvosM3 · 05-16-2012, 08:30 AM

$4k seems about right for a $200,000+ car. Lease rates for the CLS63 is about $2,000/month so for the Bentley to cost twice as much means the lease payments will be twice as much, and it's a Bentley.

Lots of interesting careers here! pretty cool!

As for me... Just turned 28 last week,
I co-own a small apparel label and i'm also a fashion photographer/graphic designer/Airbrush artist which i do all for side money.... Couldn't see myself dropping 4k a month on no car note though unless that equated to 10% or less of my monthly income which is the case with my M3.
