Since I am the son of a very successful business man(my dad) I don't have to work until i get a job because he said he would rather have me study without stress of rent or pay gas etc. than make me fail a test and ruin one year of my life. This happened to one of my cousins when he was in sophomore year college ,he failed one of his finals because he was to busy trying to make money for paying rent , pay for gas, etc. After that happened no one in my family and anybody in my extended family from both my mom's and my dad's side never have made their son or daughter work to pay for their own stuff ,but instead supply money for them so they don't have to have additional stress and can be successful in life and not work at a job that barely pays 8 bucks an hour. So there is the reason I am living on my dad's money. Since I am Punjabi (type of Indian) and I am my parents only son I have to follow Indian traditions and keep my parents with me for the rest of my life until I'm able to earn money and am married ,so after those things happen they will be living on my money. So my dad said to me that it wouldn't be big deal for him if he supplied for me because he knows once I become successful he will be living in my money. Get the concept because I think have explained every thing possible even and gave you guys an example
That's awesome for you man, I hope you appreciate everything you and your family has and aren't just a rich snob. I'm Punjabi too, but my family is from Pakistan. Also the only son, so I understand your situation. It took me 6 months to convince my parents to let me get the 370Z with my own money.

The only thing about new BMW M's are that they lose their value really fast. I think the M3 is better with this than the M5 and M6, but it is still something to consider. You can probably save an easy $10-15k buying one that is slightly used. Some people don't like buying used performance cars, but its up to you. Another option would be to wait till next year for the new M5/M6 to come out. They're supposed to get a 550 HP TT V8, which can probably be tuned for even more. I personally don't like the way that BMW is going with the looks of their cars, the M3 and Z4 and 1M are the only good looking ones left IMO.
