A car bought for $70k doesn’t mean it’s MAINTAINED like a $70k car

As long as you budget much more for maintenance and registration, this is actually a fantastic car for the price.

Sure, you are spending another 3-4k a year in maintenance compared to other cars, but it’s still a 70k car that is ACTUALLY exotic with good performance. Do not give me any of that “well a cayman / C8 are exotic looking too!!” crap.

I've been eyeballing the V12 DB11's here lately, rather affordable with the DB12's out. V12 Vantage on the other hand? Fagedaboudit.

Who said anything about budget? lol I said value. This is the automotive group - someone’s third car - a sports car - doesn’t mean they’re going to be considering some monthly budget. But a good value car is always awesome, something that’s fairly reliable, won’t depreciate much further, and offers a lot of appreciation upside at purchase has very little to do with “budget” sports cars.

DB9 and DB11 also offer some reat seat room - but not enough for an 8-9 year old.

I don’t see much appreciation upside in a DB11.
