Just invest your $$$ and buy when you’re 35-45 tbh

no
Please point out a $500k 12cilindri to me. My rule of thumb is that (assuming you're living in NYC), a car purchase is prudent, but on the right side of aggressive at 20% of your annual income or 10% of your net worth. Given a 12c is still north of $600k, you're talking about a $3mm annual income or $6mm net worth. If you're exceptionally lucky, you'll get there in your late 30s but more like your 40s.
Can’t you go for something cheaper? I waited 8 years to buy my first sports car (not hyper car) and you can learn in it and trade up from there if you feel the need (I don’t feel the need)
Exactly cause it’s not like a Ferrari would be your first car. You build up to it and have other expenses in life you spend on first. Takes that much longer for that reason unless you are willing to donate 200k in a short term lease
yeah honestly best move is to build a company or do something else this takes to long know kids who are 22-27 buying them.
