Yep. I was thinking that when driving around today in my father's Denali. It's got 85K miles on it, has been immaculately maintained, they bought it new, and it's already having engine trouble.

My wife and I both have Hondas. We've been together now for gosh.. 6-7 years or so? Between the two of us, I think we've had my car in the shop once when the motor on one of my power windows gave out.

Don't be. I'm in law school. My priorities right now do not include having a luxury car. My car gets decent mileage, it's extremely reliable, it's paid for, and actually pretty comfortable.

Actually, to my mind, on the list of 'stuff worth spending lots of cash on,' a luxury car is pretty far down the list.

Screw that priority noise; you want to be a lawyer? Start acting like one. $560 a month with $4500 down is the way to go!
