I'm not sure why you keep harbouring on about the vehicle you have?
It's not out of reach for many posters/readers here, whether they buy it outright or on credit.
Any car owner will tell you, you don't get opposite gender (or the same for those that way inclined) throwing themselves at you for the car you drive. No one looks up to you, you get a car to get from A-B or a fancy car to reward yourself (if you feel that way) .

It is a measure of self esteem, or lack of that makes people exaggerate whatever it may be that they aspire to. Self-assured people do not have to do this as they know that having a big car is not really a measure of anything important.

I have in fact advised many people not to buy 'flashy' cars, and have posted on several occasions how not to purchase cars on finance and to live within your [STRIKE]means[/STRIKE] DREAMS.

Corrected that for you :rotfl::rotfl:

I was gonna say something about a three series being the poor-er mans beemer but the one series has that title now. And this thread has gone off on a very funny tangent too. Also gt86...is that a performance car? With little skinny effcient tires to boot.

Look, I do have an M3, whether you believe me or not I do not mind. From now on I will not needlessly bring up my car if that makes everyone happy.

I bought it from Athena and it is on my bedroom wall next to tennis girl
