I read you were upside down $300k on your house, but it's your retirement, not mine...

Like I said, even a euro 318ci has the same glovebox, you're just trying to brag about your last gen M3. Sad.

House is handled. Mortgage company has made it easy by not applying my payments properly and racking up false past due fees. I have an attorney on retainer.

My home would never be my 'retirement', my 401k, IRA and other accounts are my retirement.

You originally said I didn't mention my glove box, now your are backpedaling. I could have said I have a BMW E46, but I am usually not ambiguous.

Exactly my point. You didn't need to mention your car like it was something special, because in reality, it's just an e46.

I'm glad your Mortgage company is bailing you out, being poor would suck.

ummm...usually when people have a question about their car they specify the model. Nothing like saying I have a Ford Mustang what plugs do I use in it?

Mortgage company is not bailing me out, they are being sued.

BTW the M3 is pretty far removed from the standard 3 series.

LOL comparing one of the most iconic cars in history to a Honda Odyssey (that you can't even spell right and I only have to assume you got the bare bones since you didn't specify trim level). You do realize if you priced out the top model with 15k miles on it and one year old it falls below my cars value.

I'm not sure what you think the mileage and model year has to do with the comparison. I'm just pointing out the fact that you have less to brag about than a soccer mom sitting in her 2012 minivan.

So that's your WIFE'S car, what you drive.

Nope but if it makes you feel better and helps you cope with all of this be my guest :)

I bought my wife a 2012 Mazda 3s Grand Touring in Oct/Nov...

You pay $45k for that one too?

No, it isn't as far as the interior, it is exctly the same, apart from cosmetics. Do you even have an M3 for reference, because maybe you should go and take a look at it and a normal 325, just so you know? :eek:

Oh, and it sucks that you're still upside down until the legal case is over, which you may not win.

The Mazda I got at invoice.

Your 2012 Minivan was only 'worth' more than my car prior to leaving the lot.

I picked the E46 M3 over the E92 M3, my budget was up to $55k in reality...

You are a very jealous and clueless person. Enjoy your 'Honda' and maybe in 7 years when you pay it off, you can get a chance to get something for yourself.

It's a bit more than cosmetics...you are really generalizing now.

Nothing can stop me from walking away from the house bro. win or lose the case I still win.

lol, you acted like the newer M3 was out of my price point.

So what car do you drive and why did you finance your minivan for more than five years?

If your "real budget" was $55k then even the most basic of new M3s are still out of your price point not to mention ones that are configured like the 6 year old dog you're somehow not embarrassed to be seen in now . You really suck at math alkemyst.

You seem to think you know what I'm driving these days and what my finance terms are so you don't need me for this part of the conversation :biggrin:

The E92 was made in 2008. I didn't say 'NEW'. In fact I was really against my wife getting a new car, but it's what she wanted and the difference in price between a 2010-11 Mazda 3 GT and new one wasn't so great. Plus almost none had the 6 speed she wanted.

I don't know anyone that doesn't even like cars that would call the E46 M3 a dog, I know many would laugh at a dude bragging his Honda Odyssey is better than an M3 though.

Fight the good fight bro. You are the one too embarrassed to share the car you drive, we will need pics too for proof since you are now on the ropes.

I am betting you 'share' your minivan.

I drive a 9 year old Nissan Maxima... :p

My 1998 240SX was 14 years old when I sold it at 130k miles. It was a great car. I am willing to bet the $7000 it went for is more than ChopperDan's car.

He doesn't even have a chopper either, just a 6+ year car loan at a high rate on a bitchin' 2012 Honda Odyssey base model.

...they see him rollin', they hatin'.

Wait until he gets his dubs on it. Women look out!

At 45k it's a dog.

I own a Honda? Internasting... quote please?

No, you're the one who's so insecure he has to share EVERYTHING to prove his monetary worth and then back it up with documents to a bunch of strangers on the internet when they laugh at his antics.

Speaking of on the ropes how's your wife?

lol $100 purchases are hardly bragging.

Didn't you say you were making $250k+ once? I really don't believe that with this attitude that a nice umbrella purchase is now a brag thread.

Not even once. Willing to make a ban bet out of it?

I was looking for an umbrella for a daily bag carry and one that would fit in the glove box of my M3. You 'tards turned it into something monetary.

I am not insecure at all, I have no problem answering any question asked of me and providing proof if doubted.

Unlike you I don't hide behind the anonymity of the internet.

My wife is fine. Still trying to save the world one kitten at a time.
