LightningXR6T Member 197 Member For: 19y 9m 15d Location: Newcastle NSW Posted 05/04/06 07:26 AM Share Posted 05/04/06 07:26 AM It really does suck! I ended buying a 6 month old T. I had my heart set on a new T, but I was held back for 4 months by the "handbrake". The changeover changed by $8 grand in 4 months. My trade was a 3 year old XR8.

FPV329 Member 128 Member For: 19y 9m 11d Posted 05/04/06 09:44 AM Share Posted 05/04/06 09:44 AM I bought my car because I fell in love with it sitting outside the dealer.It has bought something to my life I did'nt have and can't get enough of.The cost of it is of little concern, everything on this planet costs, it costs to sit on the loo and flush away what you don't need and it costs you to eat it in the first place.You can't take the money with you when you depart good ole terra firma ( or depreciation for that matter ) so use the money you have got to enjoy your time here.Sure I could of saved $57,000.00 and look blankly at the fonts on my internet banking page but what the hell fun is that?!My $57,000.00 stuck like glue to the ass end of a rex the other day and it was worth every cent! ( he was already in front when I found him by the way ).Try enjoying it, I'm not saying spend every cent, saving is one of the most important things in life a person must learn to do well, all I'm saying is when you do spend remember that's what money is for, to have something to enjoy and make your time here worthwhile. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24500-why-would-you-buy-a-new-car/page/4/#findComment-367627 Share on other sites More sharing options...
