Reply to comment by ThoughtsInSpacee in Can someone help tell me if I can afford this car? by ThoughtsInSpacee

You can say that about any purchase past a Toyota Camry, rice and beans, and clothes from Goodwill.

You can make this purchase without risking your financial health because of your parents covering you when your employment abruptly ends or if you can't find employment soon. Whether or not this is "worth it" is purely based on how much you value cars over other types of luxuries.

Interesting, i guess as you said, i can be comfortable spending said amount on a “luxury” and thats exactly what this is. A luxury.

Ive been trying so hard to reframe it as a necessity (COPE) but this specific expensive car isnt necessary.

This helps me a lot with my decision making. Thanks!
