can't argue that! Quote:
a lease takeover would be ideal for me. yeah i'm taking my chances right now. i have a buyer but his offer is way too low. the buyer was sending me listing after listing of ads on craigslist that he found of sellers that haven't been able to sell their car for months. i guess he was trying to convince me to go with his offer or turn into those "stuck" sellers.

Take the loss and get a smart car. In a couple years we'll be wishing we did the same.

If you were going to take a 3k hit but, as the math has already been done, you would recoupe that in ~ 8 months......that's not so bad. Obviously, it could be better, but you'd recoupe your loss in a fairly short term. The question I have is are you looking to buy a car (as in $0 financed) for your dad or are you looking to purchase & finance a car for your dad? Indirectly, I'm wondering if the money you'd save by getting rid of your Bimmer is ultimately going to cover payments for whatever car you get your dad (which is a noble thing, by the way).

did the math and if i got a civic, monthly car payments + gas would yield total savings of at least $400/month.

uh, that defeats the purpose of not increasing my auto expenses each month.
plus, a 2 door bimmer is not his kind of car.

so hypothetically lets say you are paying $600/month for your BMW... you want to buy your dad a car, on top of buying another car for yourself. So that means, you will need to find a way to get 2 cars for under $600/month. I think leasing a Civic costs around $200/month or so... So I guess your only option would be to buy 2 Civics?...

so instead of me driving around a nice BMW while my dad drives a beat up truck, i'm downgrading so i can essentially make payments on 2 "cheaper" cars. why do i have to? i don't have to. i WANT to. Quote:
