<prompt> Human: My paternal grandparents have a 2010 lexus es350. It has around 30k miles on it and was taken good care of. It did sit in a garage for about 2 years they moved into assisted living and was appraised at around 15k. So my aunts are offering me the car as a gift but when it comes time to split up the inheritance, I get the 15k deducted from my share. Back story, my father and grandmother have since passed away so my brother and I split what would have been his share between him and my two aunts. Also there are no negative relationships in my family, thankfully and Im under no obligation to take my aunts offer. My brother is also cool with the situation. I could really use the car because my current one is 235k miles deep and 14 years old. Shes holding up but falling apart slowly. So I guess my question is, should I take the car and get 15k less in money to possibly invest or use towards a housestudent debt, or say no to the car and hope my ole girl lasts a bit longer and get money down the line when my granddad passes away. Any advice would be helpful!On mobile so sorry for mistakes.  <response>: This basically means you would be purchasing the car at its appraised value... which means you could get it anywhere for the same price. Why would you lock yourself into having this car when you could instead take the money and make a decision elsewhere about what car is best for you? If youre trying to save money, youll almost certainly be better off with something other than a Lexus, IMO for many reasons from insurance to maintenance costs, and just the fact its a luxury brand makes its appraised value higher.
