Do not over think.
If you want a car go get it. Simple. We all live once so live it well.
Experience over regret my friend
Thanks so much. I unfortunately don't own a large enough business to be able to write it off. We all definitely live once. "Experience over regret"- This is exactly what I needed to hear right now. Thanks man. Also, I see that you have a honda too! lol- good to see others in my position as well! Thanks again, sir.

I researched; cash vs lease vs finance. I'm going to pay cash for most of the car and finance the rest. If you can get 3% on a loan, you can put the money you were going to put on the car in an index fund. You just have to balance risk at that point.
Thanks man. I'm now starting to realize the difference between BMW and the others. If i could afford to pay for most of it in cash, I truly would love to. At least the payment would be less. In terms of the lease, I went to a dealership yesterday and just like most people are saying, it;s just not financially worth it.. at least for me.. they didnt even want to touch the sale price.. so the cost of the lease was just a few hundred dollars less than financing. Let's see what happens.. maybe im getting hit with a reality check here haha. Thanks again for your advice. Means a lot.

Thanks again!
If money is a concern then get a used 991.2 , or a 991.1 C2S and put an exhaust on it. You’ll have a blast in either one of these cars.
