There are many people way more successful than you who drive around in regular cars (i.e. Hondas' ect..) So pick a car because you like how it looks/drives and not because of the image that comes with it! And personally, asking if you're too "old" for a car that most people cannot afford is just asking for TROUBLE. The fact that you're asking this question alone makes me think whether you are too immature for your age

Well at the grand old age of 22, I might as well settle for a Jag X-Type SE with full cream leather and wood. Now where's my pipe and slippers?

Tally ho.

(Looks as if I am more successful) Since I decided not to get the GT3 anymore (because of road conditions, etc.) maybe a regular 911 might also be possible now.

Oh for god's sake

Alumac... priceless.

In an M5 or Porsche you look like you are joy riding in your father's car. Nobody will believe that it is your car when they see you in it.

Robert · 04-30-2007, 08:13 PM

Drive whatever makes you happy. If you have doubts then don't pull the trigger.

hahahhaa,

I dont even know who to quote

I cant stop laughing.

24 - too old for the M3????? If by 'old' you meant 'young' then YES!!!!

The avg age of BMW buyers is like 50!!!!!

Anyone who can afford an M3 at age 24 is a rare exception!!!

The real question is where the f do you live where every teenager has an M3?????

I know I can't imagine. Seems like half the guys on these forums are from socal. Its like another world. I see M3's about once a month, and I gawk every time.

I hope you guys stay grounded...

ksfrogman · 05-01-2007, 12:38 AM

Yeah, you're too old. Better get a used Oldsmobile and get ready for some fun times at the Bingo Halls.

Clearly, there is paternal cash involved in this guy's transactions. You have any idea how much an M3 or an M5 costs in Istanbul, which is where he claims he lives? Taxation is through the roof. An M5 costs close to $250k. I bet an M3 will cost $150k. If you consider the purchasing parity, that would feel more like $350k and $250 to an American. (I know all this because I was born there). And he is asking us if he is too f*** young? Give me a break. There is no way a 24 year old can make that kind of money in Turkey unless he or his parents are connected, siphoning money from some kind of government project at the average taxpayer's expense (they call themselves "industrialists" or "entrepreneurs" though). That's why I left...Damn.....
