[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][i]$4,000 is a lot cheaper than buying a brand new car.[/i][/quote] [b]Yeah, idk about that.[/b] $4,000/12 is $333 a month over a year. And you'll never get $4,000 in increased resale value out of it; actually, people will be skittish about such a repair, so you might as well not disclose it. And a car that needs $4,000 in maintenance probably requires more $$$ throughout the year, so more than $333 a month just to keep it in good condition. Driving used can be very annoying and costly.[/quote] lol You don't know if 4k is cheaper than buying a new car? Really? This car with 55k will likely go another 100K-200K miles if normal upkeep is done. This car: estimated lifespan from now 10y, 175 miles. Cost: 4k + std upkeep that any car needs. A new car: estimated lifespan from now: 250K miles, Cost: $25,000 (or way more) + std upkeep that any car needs. Helloooo?[/quote]
