Camaro: costs more than a house
I district manage a few liquor stores and today I was at one of the stores with my Camaro parked out front. Anyway, a guy pulls up to the drive thru and asks one of my employees if that's his Camaro outside, he replies with "no, I wouldn't drive one of those cars I could buy a house instead." I proceeded to laugh because my car's window price was $40,200. What kind of house (that's livable) can you get for $40,200? Then he ranted on about Mini Coopers. Aren't those like $30,000+? Just thought I would share cause I got a laugh out of it.

$40k would buy you a brand new mobile home and a down payment on some land here in Louisiana. So, close, lol. But yea Minis are expensive and so are houses.

about the mini cooper, they probably think that the smaller the car, must mean the smaller the price. lol

I've nearly given up on owning a home. Any house I would want to live in here in Missoula, MT is around $200k. University town in a "desirable location". Ugh.
I got my 1le for $35k.

You can put a down payment of 40k... or buy 80 houses in Detroit -- cash.
