Grrr I am so jealous - I WANT A NEW CAR! lol Everyone here seems to get really new really expensive cars - maybe it's an American thing? I only know a couple of people with BRAND NEW cars, everyone else has really old cars, most pre 2000. I certainly can't afford a post 2000 car any way!
I've only bought one new vehicle and I hope to never do that again. 18 months ago, I bought a 7 year old car and was pretty darn happy with that.
I wouldn't be surprised if the difference is in financing options. Many Americans get 4-5 year loans or lease their cars. I've recently seen loan options for 6 years!!!
I'd rather own an older car than pay interest and higher car insurance. :shrug-shoulders:
