My friends family currently has '10/'09 s550 amg package, '06 range rover, '08 335ci, '09 impreza, '07 911 turbo(gonna be sold to buy a f430).

His dad is able to afford all this while sending 2 kids to college, 3rd kid in high school, and they just bought a new house. Off of 1mil a year i believe, give or take a few thou.

To the OP,

Its not that hard to afford one, you could just be like most internet baller’s and buy used super cars and live in a tiny home, apartment or your parents house

you can afford it if you can pay cash and not even have to think about it. if you have to finance it, you should definitely think about buying a much less expensive car, since cars are just luxury items...
