If I can borrow money cheap why dump it into depreciation when I can collect interest on it myself?

Personally I couldn't imagine paying a car payment like that every month. I guess I am from the old school; buy things in cash and enjoy it. If you really have the $$$$ to buy a Gallardo you wouldn't be worried about the interest 160k in the bank will bring, you bought the car because you want the car and can truly afford it. Usually people looking to buy such cars, have plenty of other higher yielding investments to worry about what 160k in the bank will bring in interest. Again, who wants to pay that car payment every month, it takes away from the enjoyment of the vehicle; to see that every single month. The OP is only planning on keeping the car for 3-4 months so it might make sense for him to pay 3 car payments then flip the car. He stated that he got the dealer to give him a lifetime clutch replacement on this car so it would lead one to think that he planned on keeping the car for a far greater time period than 3-4 months.

I hope you didn't buy a Gallardo for 4 months just to talk down to people who doubted you. People are going to hate regardless.
However, I am not sure what the point of keeping one for 4 months is? I am sure you have your reasons but what are 05 Gallardos now.....$130k? That is maybe a $2500/month payment? Who couldn't buy one and make 4-5 payments on it and then sell it for probably what the principal due is at that time? That isn't anything to envy. Anyone with $10k sitting around could do that, true?

The sad thing about this thread is that it's exactly why this forum board has gotten hostile. I was appalled that someone with the title of "administrator" even chimed in with his own snotty quips.
Do the admins and owner have no morals and/or or social responsibility here?

Who purchases/leases a HIGH END car with CLUTCH ISSUES when they know they're going to keep it for 3-4 months. Even if the dealer is getting it fixed. Usually people who know they are going to keep a car foe a short period of time(6 months or less) want one as close to pristine as possible. Mostwanted = TROLL I'm done...

But the REAL question is why buy a $150k car when you only have a 2,000 square foot house with a 2006 market value of $200k?

It's the fact that he comes on here putting everyone down when more than likely he doesn't even have the car.....that's why.
You should have saved some of that money to hire a lawyer....I am sure a scribbled/handwritten memo is going to be great evidence if your $20k clutch goes out and they say they aren't paying for it.

I know why he posted this thread. I understand his reasoning totally.
However, all I am saying is there seems to be some suspicion on whether what he is posting is really real....or make-believe. I could care less either way, it's just fun to watch (Hey, it's 2PM on a Wednesday, what else are we going to do).

Funny how guys with 230's and 320's are now coming out of the woodwork and are grasping at straws. Saying this that and the other. Now my house is involved. LOL.... $200k market value, thats funny as you are not even close. Hate away
I'm on my way to pick up the Gallardo and go for a drive No more retaliation, disputing, or justification from me. Just nice posts and pics Now, who's sending me a hotdog![]()

Yes, I've been to Soundbar a few times. Always lots of women there, I try to frequent only places with lots of hot women
. Hit me up next time you are in town, I'll take you on a tour. Mostwanted, next time black your name out of documents. People can find alot of stuff out about you by a name and city.
