<prompt> Human: I, as an uneducated 16 year old, hear of people buying 20k-40k cars all the time, and struggling to pay them off later down the line. On this sub, I see stories of in an emergency had to buy a car quick, now Im 8k in debt. Whereas Im perfectly content with a 94 300zx that Im slowly paying my parents back for, around 4k. So why does everyone buy new cars all the time when you can potententially get better cars for way cheaper?  <response>: they want to enjoy something they loved as a kid?
