You obviously have never lived in a small town. I can rent a 2-3 bedroom apartment for $300-400 a month. So $300 rent + $1000 car = $700 left for other bills.

I've lived in a town of population 1400 before. Thanks.

With my current bills, if I made $2k a month(which I dont lol), I could easily afford a $1000/month car payment ;)

thanks Craig. yeah took her out to get inspected. In NJ unlike in NY inspection doesnt count from when it gets done, it counts from when it should have gotten down LOL. I shoulda gotten them done in March but got them done over the last 2 weeks. And the sticker still says March and I lost 2 months on each. The guy explained it to me that even if he gave me stickers with 5 (May) on them in the computer it would still show as March. Oh well

I could afford a new C63 if I'd wanted to, but I don't, I'd rather have a E55, and buy the one I'd like to have, and be patient on a deal that I want.. Mostly because the E55 is the Merc that I'd really like to have, and I've set a strict budget to be within so it is more than affordable.

That's $900/month. You want to rephrase what you just said? It's more affordable to lease a BMW 5 series.

what maintenance do you have to do at atleast $100/month? i believe you, i'm looking into one and was just curious
