Alright, I need some help here...I would like to know if I am going ahead of myself by considering to buy the Model X (say a $100K tag car). I could buy it with cash if I like, tomorrow, but what % of your worth would you put into a car? Knowing that in about 8yrs, it would be all gone.
Sorry if this Q is quite odd in this forum. Likely the members here are the self-selected and already filtered. But I am hoping to catch some in the fence who don't have that $1M+ cash sitting gathering dust not knowing what to do...
My main objective behind why Model X (vs. a X5 or XC90 e.g.) is that:
* I need to replace two cars I have today (a BMW 5 series sedan and a minivan) into one single car that can be fun to drive, be a commuter, and a family hauler and is next generation/futuristic/uses alternative fuel etc. Wife has a separate electric car already for her commute. And we have solar.
* I am now in the market for a $50K-$60K car and Model X is double that. I know it is worth it. But, what % of your cash would you be willing to burn for a car like this? Is 25% worth it? Quite likely in about 8yrs, you would burn through all of it....so, would I? Should I? How did you convince your wife?
thanks so much for reading through...
