[QUOTE="shawn_esr, post: 671815, member: 34646"] I doubt 10k salary/mo for 1 3/5 series would be any problem at all if you have 7k after commitments. I'm not talking about owning the car but making sure the car remains in your ownership in perfect condition. You're not gonna spend that 7 but it's just a safety measure just incase something unexpected happens (when it does, it'll burn you). But here's my golden set of rules Buy a car that you can maintain without having to search the sofa for spare change. The car works for you (or at least for me. my beemers were initially bought for business image.) not the other way around. Avoid loans if possible or worse case, 50% upfront. This helps in the long run even if there's a temporary cut to lifestyle. If you're worrying after getting answers, it's probably best to avoid. Ie: I know I can afford an 8 series and its reconditioning but I also know that I CANT afford an 8 series and its reconditioning. (but I sure as hell want one) Short Answer : 10 is plenty for a 3 and a 5 (Dare not say for a 7 as I have not owned a 7) [/QUOTE]
