I often times forget you are young ( not a slam) and things like the coolest phone at the mall mean something to you and the people you hang around with. while I still think you wasted 1k I understand why you did it.

I appreciate your honesty and logic in your posts.
I have grown up with my father being in the business salvage cars.
he knows garagists that can fix up a car 99.9% and will look and feel exactly like a brand new car.
my entire life, I have been driven around and have driven my fathers salvage cars. and nobody that sits in them can tell the difference between those and non-salvage ones, because the salvage job is so well done.
think about this, I bought the M3 for 42 000$CAD and can easily sell it for 50 000$CAD, that means that i can easily drive it for 2 years and break even at the end.
who in the right mind would not do that?
my friend just leased a brand new 330CiCM, and he is paying 36 000 for 3 years. after 3 years, he has no car and threw away 36 000$. as for me, after 3 years, I don't lost a penny except for the money I spent on insurance.
or I can simply sell right now for 8000$ profit. but hey, the Nissan will bring me 5000$ itself and I can do this with a bunch of other cars, keeping the m3 for myself.
