As exciting as it is to buy that new model when it first comes out, I really don't think I will buy a brand new car again. If nothing else, reading some of the astronomical monthly payments in this thread has strengthened my resolve.
Dude something that depreciates is never an investment. Investment is a house, land, gold. That always bug me. People that consider a car an investment.
