I don't know about anyone else but even if I had enough disposable income to buy one of these outright I wouldn't just because of the amount. A car by definition is a depreciating asset anyways. I've never heard of financing contributing to the resale value plummeting....usually its a cars reputation on repairs after warranty is close to being expired. I know a ton of people who would never by a BMW or Merc without a warranty because they are either not mechanically inclined so they always go to the dealership (hence why they get bent over) or they would rather lease a car because they dont get attached and like to have something new every few years. I try to keep my fun cars forever.....life usually has other ideas and I end for one reason or another moving along. Oh well. I will continue to live vicariously thru y'all until I'm ready to pull the trigger on the right one.
