Thanks for that, we need someone with some sanity here lol. I agree there are a lot of people that maybe can't "afford it" that have bought the model S. I have broken it down every way I can and It's not a question of can I afford it, it's more a question of do I need it and being ok with the fact that I don't "need it" but the math makes perfect sense. Not sure I am however. Yes, there is more to it than that for me, I wouldn't pay 95k for an ice, heck, I wouldn't pay 30k for an ice (helps that the math makes no sense compared to the model S).
To put your worries at rest, we could start with zero and pay for a model S in cash within a year from our income with "dispensable" cash. However, I like to look at things from the perspective of what would we do if our current income disappeared for some reason.
