I wouldn't purchase it. Why? Because you're satisfied with your current car and don't really have a good reason to replace it.
If you buy the new car, perhaps you'll be excited for a few weeks or months and then it will get old and you'll regret spending so much money on it. It won't give you much long-term value for your money, plus you never really know if it's not going to turn out to be a lemon and cause you more headaches than fun.
The situation would be different if you had, say, a small car, and wanted to buy a big one so you could go on a road trip and sleep in the back or buy a truck because you do a lot of DIY projects and need to haul stuff. In your specific situation, I think that you'll regret it, particularly if you could otherwise earn a good return on the money spent on it.
