Lexus's aren't even cool in Texas. [/ QUOTE ] I hope that isn't some east coast bias. Texas is big, and yes I would say it leans a bit to the country side. But living in the 4 big cities (H-town, Big D, SA, and Austin) are quite urbanized. Haven't you ever seen a Mike Jones video? |

[/ QUOTE ] you forgot to put "big" in quotes. waco- imo theres much more you can do with the money rather than buy a overpriced car. the finance is pretty simple, car loses value, insurance is a [censored], etc. i honestly think that its pretty vulgar and im not sure how much it will genuinely attrack peoples postive attention. it is hard to live up to the cash spending rep that you will get if your are like yayo in the lexus, the golddiggers will see this and bounce out. if you are a baller and make good money from poker it will show in subtle ways, you dont have to flaunt it. esp when in college and on the golf team... i dont see how you should need that much help. |

Re: lexus is250 vs hoopty
Voltron,
It's not that he needs the help, it's that he's looking to take his game to the next level in a fun, somewhat over-the-top manner. Just living it up, who knows what might happen tomorrow? Sure, he'll have 300k in 30 years if he sticks it in the bank, but there's a lot of other ways to make 300k. And who knows, he might not be alive in 30 years. What good is that 300k then? For people who still don't understand it, check out Last Holiday on January 13. |

[/ QUOTE ] first im not even convinced that the car will be that great for getting girls, it is easy to get ass in college, and the girls he will get with an is250 will not be unworldly in quality and will be annoying and all that. we are talking about a lexus, not a ferrari or top end porsche (not to knock the lexus, but its a big gap). 2nd your financial analysis sucks, but you are funny in character. nh. |

Re: lexus is250 vs hoopty
I would put that money in the highest interest account you can find for a couple of years and put that money on a HOUSE...
IMAGINE throwing parties, keggers and [censored], and how chicks will be all over you because, you know, you have your own HOUSE. screw the car, just get a Dodge or Ford dump untill you finish your schooling. |

Re: lexus is250 vs hoopty
You should be looking at a used BMW M3.
"The IS 250 is briskly propelled by a 2.5-liter 204-hp V6 with 185 lb-ft of torque." "[The BMW M3's] 3.2-liter, six-cylinder engine produces 333 horsepower, enough to launch from 0 to 60 mph in a staggering 4.8 seconds." QED. |

Re: lexus is250 vs hoopty
I'm confused as to how you expect to pay 40-44K for a car with an invoice price of 26-30K. Does it come fully loaded with hookers and blow?
That being said, wasting money on stupid crap is what youth is supposed to be all about. Of course in my youth there wasn't online poker so my money wasting involved video games and comic books. Swede |
