The most you would spend on a new car

[Donald]

Imagine you won the lottery or something, and you had a good amount of cash. What's the most you'd want to spend on a new car? I don't think I'd go over $100,000. There are just way too many awesome cars available that are less than that. I would get something really nice though! :smile:

I think it would depend on the car, in truth.... I refuse to own a Maserati, as an example, and would adore an old Diablo.

I'd rather a castle to live in and drive a beater, though.

I would not be able to put a price on it really. First thing would be some personal matters to fix that would cost some nice chunk change fees in lawyers, then get a home - an awesome home, then work on the wants rather than the needs. I guess I would still shop smart, even rich.

I think I wouldn't go over $50,000 for a car, at most. Most vehicles going for more than that are only expensive because of luxuries that I can easily do without.

I would probably keep my car; I like it just fine. I would save as much as I could, after I pay off my house. I see no reason to buy a new car just "because I can."

I think I would cap off around $60,000. That leaves more than enough options and I don't want anything that would draw too much attention. I might even just get a couple $40,000 cars. :smile:

I think everyone made great points, but I like the idea of getting two $40,000 cars the best. Actually for my comfortable limit, I guess it would be two $50,000 cars. Then you can have some variety in addition to some luxury. Plus, I imagine my wife would want to give some input in how our money is spent, so this way we could both be happy.

It would depend on how much money I won. Since I have a car already and it's still working, I would likely spend the money on other things. Though, if I spent some of it on a car, I wouldn't spend more than $40,000.
