Or, bucks.

Do you plan on leasing or purchasing? Driving or being driven? The S class has always been the innovator in automotive technology. Here is a very detailed walk through. LINK

Don't lie.... you want the C class

I HAVE A 08 S550 SPORT..PAID CA$H!..ONLY 45KMI ON IT. LOOKING TO UPGRADE.

Dude, vehicle rates have been low for the past century. I can't remember a time I haven't see 0%-3% rates on cars

Leasing may work for you. But for most people, it doesn't or shouldn't.

Leasing, you own nothing, but you owe something.

Ever wonder why most dealerships are happy to push leasing? Hint, it's not because it's a better deal for their customer.

Well it lets people "buy" more car than they can afford, in many cases, with an extra premium kicked in.

I guess if you don't actually "drive" the car much, but are just having it to have it - it isn't a terrible deal. I mean if you must buy new, buy expensive and can't really afford it.

It's the money board. Anyone who finances a depreciating asset should be challenged on it. I do it, most people have done it, but honest challenges on "How much are you spending? Why? Why this car at this time, if you have to finance?"

Even if it is "only" 1% - you're still rolling your net worth back. It's one thing when you go and pay cash, hopefully at FMV, for a depreciating asset - when you decide to take the loss, you can negotiate from a position of reasonable strength - you've got the asset.

When you finance for an extended term (as many of these luxury cars are - sometimes 120 months - can you imagine - you'll be underwater for 9 1/2 years ) - you're a slave to that note. You can walk away, but will have neither the car nor the money - just a note. Or you have to come out of hip national bank to pay the difference.

Financing cars from an early age costs you millions of dollars when you combine the depreciation, finance charges (yes, even at 1%, they add up), TTL, and opportunity costs of what you could have been doing with that money all along.

And for what - at the end of the day you have a used car that nobody wants.

You should get a BMW instead. M6 Gran Coupe.
