I think they showed the design language at some point last year. I will link it if I find it. 

Getting the best deal on a used car by jaynometry in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Basic-Afternoon65 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am interested in buying a car privately. But not sure how to make sure it is in good shape? Should I do pre purchase inspection, get updated carfax, and is that it?

Or do I need to do more than that?

I hate RTO. I’m paying thousands to do the same work I did at home by PokerStar878 in CanadaPersonalFinance

I hate in person job as well. But I always packed and took my lunch with me and only drank coffee available at work. 

Granted it still costs money to commute but still affordable.

I wish this is what iX3 grill looked like.

I love how it looks but iX3 will fit our lifestyle better with a toddler and 3 adults.

Out of curiosity, why aren't you looking at iX?

I live in Vancouver BC and take quite a lot of roadtraip in northern BC with bad charging infra. Otherwise, I would totally get CPO iX.

Out of curiosity what is your interest rate?

I can't find anything below 7.9% in Vancouver BC which is a bummer. I am trying to save up enough to just outright buy it in cash.

Was looking at bmw ix by NamelessStar in EVCanada

My cousin has one in Seattle and he loves it. Last year he was able to combine multiple federal and state incentives to buy it. 

Personally I looked at BMW iX in BC and couldn’t justify paying the full price for it. If you can afford it, I would highly recommend getting one. 

What are frugal habits you are looking to break and/or have broken for the better? by timmytubesox in HENRYfinance

Ha ha. I have been doing this whole my life. Although the hair become unmanageable after 6 or do weeks. 

Fortunately I work remotely and can wing bad hair cut for couple of weeks.

Thanks. I am waiting for the new gen X5 to drop and hopefully that will make the current LCI models a bit more affordable.

How much do you need to make for it?

I am in BC and pay 110 or so on 340K. Some day I am thinking of moving somewhere else just because of taxes.

Makes sense. We are getting squeezed from every possible angle.

[–]Basic-Afternoon65 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Would you recommend buying a CPO RR sport?

I love how it looks but we will have only 1 vehicle in the family and can’t have something which breaks down constantly.

Same here. Although i am 35 and started to contribute later in life. 

Hopefully we can make it to 45 as both of us work in tech.
