@@MelloHubb There are also plenty of upper class people who finance $100k cars...it's no big deal. Say you pay off all of your debt and you collect a $3000 paycheck monthly. You can still AFFORD a $100k car on a $1500 a month lease/finance, then add in a few hundred for insurance....and you still have a little over $1000 to save or spend. It's probably not the most ideal option for most people to spend half their paycheck on a car, but it is attainable and doable. There is no correct move, it varies from an individual basis.
