Re: Chronic Car Buyers Anonymous
The new A/S 6 etrons look rather interesting, on my list to review. But at this moment I think I'm inclined to stay put. I think. Lucid called again, it's a bit of a drive to the showroom, not sure I want to yet go fully electric.Congrats @28firefighter! BMW owns the color blue.Yup - I’m in the same boat…I was pretty enthusiastic about the prospect of a Lucid with last month’s lease deals, but July brought much less attractive offers. And if their online inventory of available cars is accurate, it would seem there has been a rush from buyers to snatch up remaining 2025 models, so not so sure those lease deals are returning any time soon.
Lucid dealer has contacted me several times since I went lookie-lou'ing a couple weeks ago. Lease prices went way up this month, they're advertising the end of the $7500 lease credit 9/30. Not sure I want to part ways with the wonderful A7 before I pay it off at 0%, assume a similar lease payment for 36 months. The Air GT is leasing for not too much more that Tourings (cars they have on site up here), offering EPA rated 500+ miles range. And, of course, I'd have to upgrade the garage to 240...
Such problems.
I did test out a new S6 e-tron this past Friday. I’m not sure if it’s as nice as your current A7, but that could be a nice option. I have that on my short list, along with the SQ6 e-tron and Polestar 3.
I’m also attracted to the deeply depreciated pricing on lightly used BMW iX’s.
Since I'm now on a fixed income, am I finally becoming fiscally responsible? If so, does that now make me an adult? If so, darn, maybe I have to rethink my rethink!

My favorite moment was when we were on I95 in CT and she's complaining about all the trucks driving like "Bats out of hell!" And I asked her, "You mean like the few I've just passed?" "Yes!!! Where are they all going so darn fast!!!!"

My parents are in Myrtle Beach. They said is is extremely hot there. If you happen to see a Red Tahoe RST with NY plates driving around town, it’s them;).

Growing up, whenever we took the NJ Turnpike my Dad always drove with the trucks. I thought it was to drive my Mom crazy. He said that most truck drivers are very disciplined drivers and they’ll tap their brakes when they know there’s a cop ahead from the CB radio.
I’ll take my chances with the trucks than the clapped out black 05 Altimas doing 97 in a 65 while texting.
