Ok, so I'm gearhead. I'm the first to admit it. I have a Jeep built as a rock crawler and a little beater econobox as a daily driver. I love my fast cars, 4x4 trucks, and especially Jeeps (the kind without tops and doors as long as the weather is warm). Maybe it's cause I grew up as the son of an old school street rodder (where they built their shit rather than paying someone else to do it), who knows. At any rate, one of my goals has always been to buy a Lamborghini. At some point, an Aventador would be awesome but that is a ways off. With that in mind though, I'd really like an LP640 Murcielago. Ever since getting to drive a 2006 a couple years ago, it's been even more firmly etched on my brain than it was when I was 5, and told my dad I was going to buy one when I grew up (ok, so back then it was a Countach but whatever).
So my brother and I were talking the other day. He already has a BMW M3 and a Volkswagen R32. He has been wanting an Aston Martin Vanquish S and there's me wanting the Lambo. We sort of disagree. He has everything paid for. I maintain that it doesn't make any sense to pay for an exotic car outright but rather, make the down payment and finance it while continuing to roll the difference over in the business. It seemed to me that the gain from rolling the difference over in the business would significantly outweigh the benefits of paying outright, especially with current interest rates.
I should probably point out, I don't have a desire to have a big house. Just a little acreage and really don't have many responsibilities in life.
So what do you guys think?
