I've been called a car snob

[nh500sl]

This girl told me that I was obsessed with yuppy cars. It's true that I enjoy older Benzes, Volvo's and , even some BMWs. I would not call my self a snob becasue of it though. For instance, I can by an old 560 sel tune it to the nines and and still be cheaper then a new camry. I would also have a much nicer driving car. I find that it is a good value to buy someone's older high end car and fix what needs to be fixed and enjoy it with out the depreciation expense of the original owner. This said person went out and spent 20,000 on a newer toyota, and then another 3000 on a extended waranty. I don't consider this to be a smart financial decision, as she has paid more, and really got less. So, I would have to say, that I 'm not a car snob, but a intelligent consumor.
