I think that most of women are tools that boys use for fun, the ones my age anyway. Maybe it will change with time, but what I know for sure is that no women will ever tell me what to do with my hard earned dollars.

feelings =/= business. She manages the house, I manage the finances.

I'm 20 and pretty successful in life in a country that is not mine. I think I'm a little bit smarter than average people and that's what makes me who I am. I don't need support from anyone, I don't need a girl to tell me how to manage my life.

Lots of us here in this section are around 30s and older. I think I can say this for them: As we age, we've learned to understand the meaning of "Never say never"

Wow...all this relationship advice because some guy bought a C63BS and then realized he really couldn't afford it...

I don't know which advice to take...hold out and make sure you marry the right girl...and get a prenup...and ask her permission before big purchases...or don't go out buying $100K cars and spending out of your means.

Huh. Gotta ponder that one...things still smell fishy here.

Carl, sorry about what happened. Hope all works out. From what I know, you are a stout guy. Don't let it get to you.

Nkc, didn't get it.

Make no mistake people, I can afford the car, it has a negative stigma attached to it, and I'm really just not enjoying it because of the turmoil it's caused.

I just don't care to have it. I love it, but it wasn't worth what I've had to deal with after.

Please let's just stick to the topic and help me offload this car.

Great point who the **** is the government to pry into peoples lives and decide who DESERVES something.

Some stupid ****ing judge decides the outcome of your private relationship and lawyers in the picture.

No wonder so many good men commit suicide when this **** happens.

These court systems ruin people's lives

It's none of their business what is FAIR! Who said anything about sharing.

This is the most brainwashed babble **** I have ever heard. Are you serious?

Where are you finding C63 BS cars for $100k?!!...

Seriously though, this is my mental problem that I cant get over. Many of these cars stickered $110-115 ish. I can easily get my head around that pricing. This car is worth it. Can even get my head around paying a little more. But at $140, 150k for these BS cars that is $30k, $40k over sticker. And some are getting mileage on them already. Cant get my head around that. Not rich enough I suppose... not willing to "pay to play" at that level.

Still trying to find a BS in the $120s...

sales tax on a 120k car is going to run you 9-12k +/- depending on the state/local jurisdiction rates. Perhaps that explains part of the "premium" on prices over the MSRP on a car so new despite mileage

not saying I agree, but there you are.

the court doesn't ruin lives when in America all you have is a bunch of hoodlums getting girls pregnant and leaving them like that. I know i know the girl shouldn't be opening her legs to any dude but most are in legit relationships. What kind of man are you if you go around getting women pregnant and thinking you owe nothing. The court is there for a reason but if there are no children involved, then the court shouldnt be either.

kinda stupid to say this country isn't yours. It isn't anyones. We are all on borrowed time and if you were in your country where ever it may be, how successful would you be. Just having a hard time imagining a successful 20 year old. I could only imagine what kind of job you have.

No, that's not it. Most of these cars (at least the ones I have seen) stickered well below $120 (they didnt have track pkgs, carbon pkgs, etc.). Out the door they are closer to $120k, with tax, delivery, everything. In some cases less than that even. They are being listed for $135, $140k, $150k, etc. Some of them with more than delivery miles. Some may say "what is $30-40k premium on a $120k car?" My answer is - that is a lot on a $120k car, that is already a $120k full sticker car!

Happy paying MSRP. Unfortunately, not enough made it to the US with all the pkgs I want (and in the colors I want). And less of the cars that match my requirements (i.e., zero) are being offered at reasonable prices.

At this point, I think I'm taking the backseat and waiting until more show up on the market. It's a bit too soon after they've sold out to expect them to not be listed (or selling, for that matter) at absurd prices.

Good luck in your search.

(For the record, I'm OK with Mars Red, Black, and White. Not interested in Silver or the two Matte colors.)

Took some great pics of the car tonight, professional published photog did all the work, hope to post as soon as they are up, also we will be taking more detailed shots sunday.

I am 50-50 on the sale of this car, looks like there are not many around.

I may post it on ebay for a higher amount then I first wanted, noting the supply and demand on this car.

I know - I know there will be lots of hate posts, but the white one on ebay fetched 160K ........ less optioned then my car.
