[QUOTE=Ethirtynine]In my opinion it sounds a bit much buying a Cayman S (or even a new car for that matter). She's only 18 and just starting college! If her dream was to travel somewhere then I can understand if you wanted to take her there. But for a dream car? She has her whole life.
Also, 15 months really isn't that long. I'm surprised you would even consider buying a new car for a girlfriend. If she was your fiance or wife, that'd be a different story. I don't know what your situation is though, but in my opinion either you're trying just a little too hard, or she's got you sprung.[/QUOTE Yeah I TOTALLY agree with you. I mean, HEY I'd love to get a gift like that, but I think it's rather inappropriate. I don't know, it's just a really big gift and I don't think it fits. |

Just make sure it's in your name. A friend of mine had her boyfriend co-sign on a car for her and they ended up breaking up and she got a restraining order on him and he got screwed and ended up paying for a good part of her car and she still drives it. Not saying your girl is a bitch, but just don't be stupid.

I agree, put the car in your name. When i got my E90 my boyfriend was gonna pay 1/2 of my monthly payments. (He was doing it to repay my dad back for helping him out). Well, we broke up badly and now they payments are all on me. I also agree that 15 months isnt a very long time. I say wait until you guys are engaged to get a huge gift like that. Or when she graduates college. Because think about it, from now on, all the other gifts you get her will never top the porsche. Start slow..

ha I'm only 20 not a big difference. My money and her money is "our" money. We share everything. We are bascially are ingaged just without the name. How long we have been together doesn't mean anything its just a date, but the relationship we have is different. Its not a ordinary relationship. When you know the feeling of love then your insight on things change. Her mini she has was bought brand new by the both of us. Everything we have is not mine or hers it is ours. also about worrying about breaking up, we dont worry about that. we know whats forever

This is the most insane thread I have ever read. I doubt you will listen, but for about 10 different reasons you should not get her a Porsche.
a) you will probably break up given how young you are b) no 18 year old needs a new porsche c) she is going to college and does not even need a car that badly d) you will be setting a high standard for gifts in the future e) you should invest that money instead of blowing it on a porsche that will likely be in an accident at some point or another (see lindsay lohan, sl65)

Having a real tough time believing this thread. It just seems waay too weird to be true. If you own a business as you say, you should know the importance of good accounting, especially if you apparently making bucks and reinvesting, playing landlord, floating additional loans... It would borderline in illegal for not keeping records, especially for tax purposes.
Nobody who makes cash like the kind you are talking about (enough to buy new bmws and porsches at a whim) would operate with shared bank accounts with 18 y.o. girlfriends. If this story is only even remotely true.. that's plain messed up. Oh, and I'll take a stripper Caymen. |
