Yes. A $308k car can have as many spots as it wants.

Btw: love your avatar pic!

Yeah try taking that thing to the track where "poof"! Your insurance evaporates the moment the car goes on the track property.
I guess all the "Track Guys" here on the forum have their car paid for so insurance doesn't matter? Does life/health insurance evaporate at the track also?

Health and life shouldn't have any issues with track events. And many track events have insurance you can purchase. I'm not sure how the rest of your post relates to crappy parking, especially in response to the post about door dings you quoted.

I ALWAYS park the best that I can, but somehow every time I mentally relax and think "Oh, I'm just being paranoid, it will be OK" something happens. The other day I parked out in the wilderness in the shade of a nice healthy tree. Then when I come out to my car, there's a small tree limb next to it, and yep, you guessed it, new scratches all down the rear window, across the paint on the trunk lid, and across the taillight. I'm just about to stop caring....

I'm nutty about my new car too. I have to remind myself it's just a car.

Nope - It's an investment, and an expensive one at that. It is also Pride and Joy.

If you have neither, then it's "just a car" (not implying that You don't have neither...)...

Cars are an investment?
Let me know how much you make on your Z at Barret Jackson :roflpuke2:

Investment Definition:
a thing that is worth buying because it may be profitable or useful in the future.

cooltoy 09-28-2013 11:37 PM

Maybe an emotional investment, never a financial one.

Fountainhead 09-29-2013 02:26 PM

Maybe he meant he's "investing" himself in modding, developing, and enjoying the car? I know I do.

I'm sure I spent money for my Z, therefore if it increases or decreases in value in the future I invested my earnings on it.

blackcherry20 09-29-2013 06:08 PM

^^^not all "investments" make money... Unfortunately. :(

Barret Jackson? So, let me see, the fact that you can take your car to the dealership and get as much return for it as possible when purchasing another, is that not an investment?

That's ok. I did not make the statement to convince anyone otherwise. You go ahead and define it in whatever you terms you want to. LOL! :tup:

You get less back from the dealer than you paid for it. It's not a return, its a loss. A car is not an investment. An investment is something you expect to gain in value. The only cars that are appreciating in value are incredibly rare and expensive already.

SouthArk370Z 09-29-2013 08:27 PM

You're both right. :)

From Investment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia :
Quote:

Investment has different meanings in finance and economics.

In economics, investment is the accumulation of newly produced physical entities, such as factories, machinery, houses, and goods inventories.

In finance, investment is putting money into an asset with the expectation of capital appreciation, dividends, and/or interest earnings. This may or may not be backed by research and analysis. Most or all forms of investment involve some form of risk, such as investment in equities, property, and even fixed interest securities which are subject, among other things, to inflation risk.

I couldn't resist posting after seeing this. I would be worried that any car parked next to me would clip my rear end.

Is that seriously a spot between them? Looks too small.

But I guess it is.

Jsolo 10-05-2013 06:02 PM

A motorcycle or two will fit nicely :)

Nailzs 10-06-2013 10:45 AM

Bet you could get a Smart Car in there.
