[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]625k HHI , we have -

2013 Toyota Sienna Limited All Wheel Drive (family errand car)
2014 Ford F350 Platinum (Hubby commute car)
2013 Porsche Carrera 4S - date/fun car

Total sticker was about 225k altogether, paid in cash.

Wow, you're taking it in the shorts for an awful lot of depreciation (and maint. on the 911 long term).

I'm a car guy from way back, 200K HHI and ~$4M liquid assets:

2005 Toyota Matrix XRS (bought used/CPO, wife's daily driver, a little hot rod with that engine)
2005 Toyota Tacoma (wife's garden maint. business truck), bought used
2009 Subaru Outback Limited (bought new)
1973 Porsche 911 (bought from late friend's daughter in 1992 - an appreciating asset)

All paid in cash.  I've been through the Saabs, Audis, M-Bs, Acuras, etc., and just don't think it's worth the outlay at this point, though I reserve the right to splurge on one new Porsche (probably a Cayman) before I croak.  :mrgreen: [/quote]

Definitely not the Saabs.  RIP.   :cry: [/quote]

PP here.  I miss the SAABs (the pre-GM "classic" ones). [/quote]
