If you have a car in NYC you can't worry about the cost.
I wouldn;t do it unless I had deep pockets

Personally they are huge liabilities esp if you can't afford the least $500 a mo to park them in a garage.
Where do you find parking
do you have alternate

Wait til it snows & the plows pile you under
oooh & the salt
Cars in city ddriving do get beat fast
