Sure but why go flame someone when it's not even necessary? He started this thread to provide some feedback of his experience with his car, why did you guys feel the need to comment negatively on his priorities?
I express my opinions, positively, although at an opposite position.
Ah just stop it everyone.
Best of luck my friend. I have great respect for you for doing such a big Decision. It is not easy to take risks and responsibilities.

I would never buy a $60k car without buying a house first, especially in Bay area during this housing bubble burst time.
Cars are depreciating assets and houses are appreciating assets or at least inflation hedge candidate over long term, especially in Bay area.
We all love cars but if one spends money wisely, one can truely own a dream car sooner.

Your priorities seem perfectly in order to me. Sacraficing a little in the short term to put yourself in a position to get far more in the long term is a mature and wise course of action.
Much respect.
