That's why it drives me nuts when people obsess about depreciation, wear and tear etc. Just drive it and smile. Otherwise what's the point?

If it's a financial concern then that's a different conversation.
You want to hear naysaying I get when I tell people I plan to daily drive my Carrera 4S to work including in the winter. They act like its sacrilege or desecration of some kind. First week I had it I tried not bringing it to work and taking my 128i instead. Lasted one day before I said "F*ck this!".

Life is too short and most people can only dream of owning and driving these cars. I don't agree they're just objects; they are a joy delivery system one smile per gallon at the time. Everything can be fixed with enough time, effort and know how. And the more cars you get the less mileage and wear and tear on each individual one. If you truly love cars work hard, make more money, invest it and then use it wisely to enjoy these things. I don't know about you guys but I didn't bust my a** at work for years and continue to bust my a** daily to not fully enjoy the fruits of my labour.
