Depends on what your long term goals are for it. Are you going to buy a $100k car new, drive it for 5 years, then sell it at a fraction of its value? Or are you going to buy it slightly used, drive it for 1-2 and keep it in good condition, and then sell it and get much of your money back?
Personally, I'd never buy a $100k car unless money had become immaterial. Unless you're retired and enjoying what you've got saved up, why not buy a car at half that price, and then put the half you saved into a moderately conservative money market fund?
So the question becomes at what income that $100k is immaterial. Having a car like that for say, two months of work would be reasonable, which equates to $600k a year, take home. Double it at taxes and you're at over $1M - at least from my perspective
