On the contrary, I know many people who get new cars every three years. It's not even about being greedy, it's about reliability. I'll admit that five years seems more reasonable to get new cars, but many cars come with warranties for only a certain amount of time (be it three or five years or anything else) and after the warranty expires it can be a headache if something goes wrong, so people just get new cars while their current car is still worth something and they can get a good deal on a trade-in or private sell.hockeystyx16 wrote:and if you get bored of a car every 3 years, you need to stop thinking like a greedy rich ass (no matter how rich you are) and modify your current car.
do you move every 3 years because you got bored of your house/apartment? no. exactly. you get tired of the way a certain room looks, you change something. its the same with cars.
Comparing buying a new car to moving into a new house is an analogy blown out of proportion.
I'll admit that leasing isn't for everyone and it always depends on the situation, but some of you guys are putting it down a little prematurely. Sometimes an open mind doesn't hurt.
