Date: October 23rd, 2025 8:44 PM Author: exciting seedy bawdyhouse if you want a new car that depreciates massively, you need to pepper your angus. it's gonna hurt. doesn't matter if you lease or buy, you will be owning that depreciation. if you want to avoid this problem, find a similar car that is a few years old, or something different entirely
edit: leases are generally priced at the number that the new car loses to depreciation, plus interest, taxes and fees. |

Does that seem like the kind of cash you have? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5788846&forum_id=2:#49369846) |

Date: October 23rd, 2025 8:54 PM Author: Boyish brunch sandwich There's one in my garage now. I don't like Escalades/American cars generally but it looks 180. The interior is close to German level of finish and it is super fast but oddly silent. That motherfucker weighs 9,100 pounds though, so I don't know why on earth they would put it on 24s with low profile tires. I can't imagine those lasting more than 20K miles and they will be $2400 per set to replace. (They are 275/50R24, lol.) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5788846&forum_id=2:#49369853) |

Date: October 23rd, 2025 9:26 PM Author: Boyish brunch sandwich I'm not saying it's a lot, just annoying for a daily driver.
BTW those are like 50% more than the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S's on my 911. |

Date: October 23rd, 2025 9:33 PM Author: exciting seedy bawdyhouse that's fair, my brother. it's an expensive car and i guess it's common for automakers these days to prioritize looks over comfort wrt wheel size. how old is your 911 - did you buy it new? great cars. on bigger vehicles like a cayenne i think the tires are more than 911s (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5788846&forum_id=2:#49369971) |
