Logic goes out the window for me when it comes to cars. It's my only vice. And I typically rotate thru cars. My lifestyle is pretty basic other than my choice of cars lol.

I'm more into physics than anything else now and if I don't satisfy my craving for a car I want then my thought process gets consumed with it, so I make a choice and move on so I can think. Lol

Edit: I'm not brand focused, I buy niche unique products. Also, I try to buy things right, but also focus on time, I don't like wasting time. On trd, It's a big project, I just wanted to bang it out as quick as possible. On x5, it's 1 year old 2013, but someone else took the 1st year depreciation on it. On bac mono, msrp price went up $25,000 earlier this month, my car isn't even scheduled to be here till mid next year. So I'm earlier in the cue, and I'm grandfathered in at the old msrp per my contract. So, even when I'm spending, I try to spend strategically when I can..
+1 for Work hard, play hard mentality supra2nv!
I'm the same way, but sometimes I wonder if we're living a bit too frugally.
What's a good number to aim for, in terms of income range, in order for one to have the supra2nv lifestyle (assuming same geographical location, same family size, conservative mentality, etc.)? Thanks!
