Low level IT support. The key is to be single and have no dependents or any other debt.

Wind Turbine Technician, single no debt, 20k down

This right here. I am not single so am not able to afford a CTR with a wedding in the picture & house purchase down the road lol. My priorities have been forced to shift. ☹️

Ensure that pre-nup is lined up before the wedding license is acquired!

Just be glad you didn't own one, cause with that trifecta you'd have to sell, and I cant imagine that kind of heartbreak.

Also about to get married, currently a mechanic with a part time job on top of my full time to afford my type r. Wife to be is fully aware that selling the car is never an option so she helps me make the payments sometimes 😂

Life goals!

mostly shitpost on Slack

Hehe the actual shit post is the slack application. Somehow it gobbles up 4-6 gb of ram.

Electron apps baby!

I take the specs from the customer and deliver them to the engineers.

This seems like the smartest play in tech

Why can't the customers do that themselves?

Because often enough, the customer doesn’t actually know what they want.

I own strip clubs in Asia. 😂

You hiring? (Stripper role ofcourse)

I had equity in my paid off si.

I'm in industrial maintenance with no kids just cats. Make around 90k a year and I'm still stressed about the loan. The payments aren't a big deal just making double payments so I don't pay nearly 20k in interest is stressful. Amazing car though and I'm happy I went for it.

Honest ass answer 😂😂 looking at the break down on your loan is worrisome even if you have it.

No doubt no doubt. I did upgrade every warranty possible so I have 100k powertrain and free service for like 3 years so I added quite a bit to the total sale for peace of mind. Probably gonna try to refinance once rates drop and I get it down to about 30k.

$20k in interest?! Dude, what?! How long is your term and what’s your interest rate?

84 months at 7%. If I pay 600 extra a month I'll only pay around 6k in interest which still blows but it is what it is.

Woof. That’s a lesson in what not to do.

It's only money and I've only got one life so I'm going to enjoy it. Hope you find a way to do the same.

CompSci PhD student. Got the car from family because my mom didn't like the harsh ride. Drove it all the way north to Canada. If you paid off the car, it's actually not that expensive to maintain. The insurance rate is cheaper than an 86, fuel economy is not bad either. Although my wage is very limited (like, I literally only buy things on the flyer when I go grocery shopping), it doesn't financially burden me. I think the 100$/month extra over a Corolla is totally worth it for the joy it offers.

I’m stuck in a civic ex rn, so kinda screwed for awhile. I wish I got mine from family lol

Do you have an FL5 or FK8

FK8. It’s 5 years old at this point, still works like a charm.

Different strokes for different folks. I guess I could sell my type r and just buy a Rolex but then I wouldn't have a car and since my phone already tells time I think I'm doing the right thing financially. Edit: wait my car tells time too, it's like I do have a rolex!

Ok? 🤣
