Would you buy a new car cash? - GoFuckYourself.com

seeric · 05-24-2006, 02:25 PM

i'm thinking of going to buy that cadilllac cts. i hate having debt and i am wondering what is wrong with buying it cash outright. several people have told me not to do it. won't i be able to get it for alot cheaper if the dealership sees a fat envelope full of money? never bought a brand new car before but i am finally in the position to do it.

FuqALot · 05-24-2006, 02:32 PM

debt is for wannabee'z. i have neve tried it but i couldnt imagine it would be fun to drive or use something when you didn't pay for it.

i bought a new car in cash the other month in germany. i wired it though. bringing that amount in cash is not really comfy hehe.

After Shock Media · 05-24-2006, 02:32 PM

I always only buy used.
I have this issue with buying anything that once I sign my name and move it 20 feet it drops 30% in value.

good idea. buying one that was used for 10k miles or so would save me a bundle and i can used that money on new wheels and stereo.

FuqALot · 05-24-2006, 02:34 PM

about dropping value, it depends.

if you buy a car that is exclusive and hard to get, then there is not much dropping in value.
especially when you put it on one of your businesses and then write off that shit, even the value dropping is a good writeoff. but again, it depends on the car and how much it is.

someone has to buy a new car so that you can buy a used one though ;)

The Ghost · 05-24-2006, 02:36 PM

No, unless your credit is complete shit. It is common to have sub 3% finanacing, and you can do anything short of thowing your money in the wind and earn more than that in investments. No point of tying up that kind of cash for something you can slow pay over 36 months +.

You can get the same deals with credit than you can with cash.

I am not for flash or trying to impress people. To me a car is a tool and as long as it does the job and is comfortable then that is all I need.
I would much rather put my money into other more important things.

They'll fill out a STR (Suspicious Transaction Report) form and send it to the government if you do it in the US...

well yeah, that's the thing you have to consider. for me, i love cars, and the faster the better. hehe.

Phoenix · 05-24-2006, 02:38 PM

dude you can write off a portion for taxes under a lease

why not take advantage of that...talk to your cpa...find the right amount to put down and invest the rest

That is what car rental companies are for. They can buy shit new and I can buy it used shortly after.

yup...unless you're an old man....i wouldn't suggest going in with cash

i mean you can...just prepare yourself for an audit & rectal exam

i believe using anything over $9,999 in cash for anything....they are supposed to report

sickkittens · 05-24-2006, 02:39 PM

If you buy it new, you'll probably save more money if you finance a certain % anyways.

DefyStudios · 05-24-2006, 02:40 PM

Yes, why not. If i have the cash

If ya love cars then of course go for it.

If I had a love affair with cars though I think I would be most interested in older muscle cars. Plus they go up in value and I love their looks.

Me too. I have a friend that owns 20 wholesale lots and hits auctions all the time. He gets his hands on some phat rides that are like 1 and 2 years old. The price is way low compared to anything new.

New cars may be one of the biggest wastes on money. Like you said, as soon as you drive out of the lot you just lost thousands.

Do it, it's much nicer.

I paid cash for my Ferrari so I can sleep better and not worry about a huge payment or anything. It was $360k so I just took $720k and put half aside for the IRs and the other half took to the dealer.

Also I wouldn't pay in actual cash, cause anything over like $5k cash they have to report to the IRS and that's a major flag and that = audit

If you have your own company you can put that Cadillac under it and write it off too!

thats my advice!

seeric · 05-24-2006, 02:55 PM

auction is a possibility too i didnt think of that. great info in here you guys. i never knew about the cocksuckers reporting you for spending cash. what a way to thank your customer that just dropped 25k or so on your desk.

"um yeah mr fbi, this guy jsut bought a car from us cash, you might wanna shcek him out."

cock smokers.

I would never buy a rental car.. Why, cause I know how I treat a rental car. like a fucking $1 hot wheel. Too much abuse.

DatingGold · 05-24-2006, 02:57 PM

Also IMO unless it's like your dream car, there is nothing wrong with buying a used car.

If your carefull and you have a mechanic check the car out top to bottom there is very little risk. It is pretty easy to spot the abused ones.

Pete-KT · 05-24-2006, 03:04 PM

Why not finance for 3 years and build up your credit? you can get 0% interest from a few of the companies right now

I completely agree. NEVER buy a rental and I mean never. I don't care if a mechanic looks at it, they can miss something.

My buddies and I just rented a Caddy up in Frisco and took it to Wine country. We were up there for 4 days. This was 4 30+ year old men. We trashed that thing. Neutral slams, fishtails, ran into curbs, we even popped one of the radial threads in the tire and the side of it looked like it had a welt on it.

I know we are not the only ones that beat the shit out of rentals. Thats what they are for. To do the things you'd never do to your own ride

Exactly... when you have money, credit is a dime a dozen and you can make a lot more with the money.

I was sick of buying cars even with only a few k miles on it, and having problems, so recently bought a brand new one. Not cash though...

Peaches · 05-24-2006, 03:32 PM

I just bought my Wrangler and was going to pay it all in cash but they had a $500 rebate if you financed through them. So I paid 4/5 in cash and will pay balance as soon as the first bill comes in. It's 2nd play car I plan to keep unil the wheels fall off. For a daily driver, I'd rather lease.
