Right. Then please let me know which one of those high powered foreign sports cars is the bargain in insurance premiums. I'm in the market too.
But seriously, you can't be suprised by the doubt. IF your weren't really trying to flaunt, you would have said how much you ARE WANTING TO SPEND. Not how much you make. IF you are so good at saving money and being a good business man, the three cars you "picked" are probably too much. I know people who make millions and drive Civics or old pickup trucks. How can we know what to suggest based on your monthly income? An eighteen year old living at home with mom and dad making 12 bucks an hour can "afford" a nice car, has less to do with income, but expenses - in that situation - I'm sure you owe no one and pay everything in cash. So seriously, don't get all bent out of shape because people don't believe you, its just the internet after all.

If i buy my next BMW, i would do the european delivery. Saves you money and you get to pick up your car and drive it in Germany. Also, I would order and customize it to my specs. DCT is the way to go.

I decided I'm not gonna lease, thanks for the advice. I thought of leasing so I could upgrade later on, but I'm just going to finance it and keep it. For some reason I didn't like the M5 as much as the M3, it didn't think it looked as good...but the dealership I went to only had 1 M5 and 1 M3, so I'm going to try to find a dealership with more configurations of both series. I already tried 2 BMW dealers and the first had 1 M3 and 1 M5 and the other didn't even have any M series =\

Those cars are like 2 months pay for you...why not pay for it in cash. No point in wasting money on interest...that is unless you want to build credit I suppose.
