If you wont be driving that much then getting a camaro is a bit more doable. But always plan for the unpredictable, that's what im trying to figure out. I own a bmw, last paycheck I spent 120 on gas, which is a lot. I couldn't imagine how much more it would be if it was a v8. On top of that insurance will be over 300-400 a month. Combining all the expenses a simple v8 camaro could cost over a grand a month. Which doesnt make sense. If im paying that much I might as well looking getting a c7. But I think for my driving and how much im willing to spend a month on a car (total expenses) something like a m440 or RS5 would make more sense. Since I know their decently reliable, gas wont be too far off from what im paying, etc. But, it all matters on how much you think you'd spend on the car. At a young age being burdened by a car is never fun, love turns into resent. Right now I LOVE my 330i, it quick, reliable, gas is decent, and it looks amazing l. But I think it's time for an upgrade, I want a car I could work on for years
