Whats the point of buying a different one that is one year newer?

What a waste of $, not to mention the fact that you just put yourself more into debt.

why does someone buy a $200,000 car? Cuz he can afford it. I think get what u want, I wanted a white one, now i can afford it, so i got it. All im doing is startin over, but with a lottttttttttt of zero's and a new car smell and the color i want.

If a person wants something and can afford it - what does it hurt?

I love cars and I love motorcycles - have all my life. I have not figured out a way to take my money with me to the grave, so why not buy what I enjoy now.

YMMV



BTW, I like your rims!!! Are they painted or powder-coated? I have a set of AP1's on my S now for my winter tires and would like to dress them up a bit.

congrats on your purchse! I go through cars pretty quick Also. I work @ a dealership and I get the new car Bug more often than I probably should.

The Cars I bought in the last 14 months:
2005 Scion tC (YUCK!! What was I thinking! - I just needed a cheap car)
Traded it for a 2005 Honda Accord EX V6 6MT (Black!)
Bought a 2005 Rioyellow S2K
Traded the Black Accord for a 2005 Accord with NAV and LOWERED my payement with a 24 month lease special
Bought a Civic Sedan
Leased a 2006 GPW S2000
Bought a 2006 Civic Si
Traded the '05 Accord and '05 S2K on another '05 S2K (Got rid of ALL the negative Equity in the Accord and got rid of that extra Car payment)
I'll be adding a Honda Fit to the ever growing collection in April...I need a new Hobby.

I had to cancel the volks to have some money to pay the difference i lose, cuz i owe more then its worth. Sucks but maybe later on.
Then how do you figure you can afford a year newer car if you already owe more on the last year model than it's worth???

Owing more on a something than what it's worth is the worst financial position to be in. I owe $10k on my 05 and it's worth $27k.

Well if it does turn out bad then look under a title, Sold it cuz i cant afford it, till then im happy with my choice. Right now i feel my 05 wants to scream vtec, but the 06 doesn't want to move, Im sure its because i have to brake in the car, one thing i found out yesterday is that the car has a day light, which means the light stays on durin the day for safety, The vsa i have no idea what it is, so someone help me out on that one.

The seats are a lot nicer, the tranny is sooo sexy. The color is even better.

But i do say, when i walk to my car i always look at my black one and think wow black looks really nice also, but then i turn to the white one and go nuts.

It is interesting how the '06 being white looks bigger than the black '05.
