Ditto.

In the end, why does the OP care?  I believe that the OP does because it gives him/her a way to label such drivers as "less than" the OP.

While I'm sure that I'd enjoy a luxury car (really, I would), my frugal mindset won't allow me to make such a purchase even though I can easily pay cash.  I look at it this way, I'm very well off [u]because [/u][b]I didn't/don't indulge in such wasteful spending.  Financial peace of mind is worth far more to me than a rapidly-depreciating luxury car.  If I wanted a toy - and that's what it is - I'd buy a classic Mercedes 2-door convertible or comparable luxury vehicle.  They're much more rare, often feature better engineering/quality parts and will hold their value.  Such a car would not be my daily driver to/from work.  Nor would such a car be my weekend errand car.  In both cases, the DC drivers would end up trashing the body with dings, dents and even accidents.  A classic luxury car isn't easily replaceable, so why put it in a situation where this is even a possibility?[/quote]
