As much as I have enjoyed buying cars when they are brand new, I have to say that they are some of the most piss poor investments I have ever made. I didn't plan on buying a used TSX but I'm glad I did. Buying it used allowed me to pay for it in cash (and to not take such a big hit in depreciation). 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.

The term "investment" is generally associated with an appreciating asset. However, many of us learning in the past couple of years that you can have an investment that is a depreciating asset as well. Anyone with a 401K took a hit, right?

An automobile, truck, motorcycle, snowmobile, etc., are, for the most part, depreciating assets (exceptions are made for rare collectibles, etc.) The rate of the depreciation determine the quality of that investment. This also applies to household appliances, furniture, and other such purchases that we make.

These depreciating assets are investments because they impact your overall financial well-being.

I noticed some people on here who had 0.9% interest rates, yet put large deposits down. This doesn't make sense to me. Keep the large deposit, put it in whatever device you wish, and get a larger return from it. Heck, my bank pays 4% on checking.

Having thrown that out - last Friday I got my '06 TSX for $380/60 mo @ 5.19%. I will be paying $500-$1000/mo depending on: 1) my mood, 2) my checking account interest rate, 3) family birthdays/holidays, etc.

10% down paid in cash $4000, for a 2 year loan from credit union. started paying 700 a month, paid in cash $6000.

now im paying around 400 dollars a month, in the next 3 months paying the rest of the price off at around $12000 in cash. so no more worries about paying monthly. yep yep
